The Reluctant Model
UH Oh!!! She is starting to balk at sitting for me. I might be in trouble here ladies.
See that face.... yeah .... I am pretty sure that means "get that camera out of my face NOW Mummy" .
I actually think she still likes it she just feels like she has to protest you know to make it seem more like a typical mother daughter exchange. LOL
I broke down and took her outside tonight, even though it was like 14 degrees, because I am SICK TO DEATH of inside photos with my darn kit lenses, fighting to get the settings somewhere within the usable range. BLAH!
It was just before sunset and I had her facing the sun, great soft warm light, made for much easier photo taking.
Settings are for both photos.
40-150 f/3.5-4.5
150mm
f/4.5
1/200

I just adore that last shot...and I hear you on the not being able to get outside!!! I am so ready for even 40 degree weather...oh and some sun!
Cari
I feel the same as you.. where is spring? I love that first shot!
That bright hat is TDF! I love the shots!
I can't wait to get outside again, too! But these photos are terrific - love her facial expression in the first one and the colors in the second are so fun!
Love that face she's making at you in the first one. When I'm desperate for a human subject to photograph, I resort to laying on guilt. It actually got kind of warm today, huh?
These are adorable. LOVE the attitude!
Oh that first one is absolute perfection, I adore it! You've totally captured how she felt about your taking her picture, nice work!!!
Love both of them, but think I prefer the color shot, the colors are so pretty! She's a beautiful girl with adorable freckles!
I so NEED that hat! I'm always on the lookout for fun, creative head wear and this one looks fantastic. Loving the first shot.
Uh oh... I am seriously thinking about inventing some sort of camoflage (sp?) for the camera.. because seriously whenever the camera comes out, my kids magically disappear!!
The top one is fabulous.
ROFLOL! Love that first one!!! Such attitude all in one look! My oldest DS asks EVERYDAY if he can wear shortsleeves yet, and he is stinkin almost 12 yrs old, about to drive me batty!!! Hope spring gets her quickly for both of yoU!
She might be reluctant but she sure is cute! I love those freckles.
i know just what you mean, mine are getting quite sick of me alsO! and i am quite sick of this COLD!
adorable shots anyway!
i just adore your work!

Love those photos! Adorable hat!
hey liz,
i just noticed you asked where i got my dd's bedding...it was from HOME GOODS (tj maxx). it was ONLY 35.00 for a KING size! i put a King size on her single bed and i LOVE how it hangs on the ground! it gives the illusion of a dust ruffle without one!!! they have the pillowcase covers there too! i forgot what the brand is, but i have seen them still there in the last few months!

I cant wait for warmer weather myself. Love the "Look". her hat is so colorfun
Love the face in the first one.
Boy do I feel your pain with a kit lens and dull winter light. Great job on that second shot.
I love your first photo! What an expression! You do such beautiful work!
I love her expression in the first one! Very cute!
they are both great, but I love the first one! I can so relate to being sick of inside shots... but it's too cold up here to get out. can't wait for spring!
oh she is adorable..i love the 1st shot..actually i love them both! great shots!
shes a doll!! I love the last one, such attitude!! LOL
