keepin it real

i should do an entire post on outtakes from my sessions. i love them dearly because they show real life (and they make me giggle). it's true, folks...the secret is out...things aren't always plums and fairies during a session.

i hope the parents don't mind if i post a few of these outtakes from their session as it displays perfectly what my friend kirstynn calls "keepin it real."


oh, and i had to add some "real" ones in as well. you know...to keep up appearances and all...

These are beautiful! The first few are very funny. Sadly when I try to take pictures of my 3 year old that's all I get anymore.

Hahaha, that is why I love you, Jean. I have seen that first one many times...a little hand coming for my lens. These are really beautiful, what a gorgeous family, too!

I love the one of the little girl crying in the wagon...I think some of the "duds" are often my favorites. I like getting my kids when they are crying...got to capture all the many faces:) Way to keep it real!

Oh my gosh these are so cute!! I adore the one of the little cutie in the wagon in tears- so real. Great session!!
Oh and to answer your question, I'm not selling my actions yet but since there is a demand I'm thinking about it in the future. ;)

I'm relieved to see your out takes. I was beginning to wonder if it was just my kids who couldn't be perfect for a 1 hour photo shoot.
