i had this idea for our family pictures (which we never take, because Steven is vehemently opposed to the "American" tradition) that i thought might work to convince even the biggest curmudgeon to acquiesce just this once.
(this was my idea)
after my birthday this year, our ages would be the following: 33 (me), 44 (Steven) and 5.5 (Lilah). so i thought, why not make signs that say 33, 44, and 5.5 and pretend that they are police line up cards (think Usual Suspects), and see what happens...
besides, we are very good at getting Lilah's pictures taken once a year, and this is a good a time as any to do that for her as well.
my sister recommended Channa Vance as the photographer. we were so impressed with the results that we are seeing her again for some kind of crazy carnie-themed shoot at the State Fair.
anyway, i hope you like these.
of course the first thing Lilah wanted to do was climb
(we specifically asked for non-smiling Lilah shots... which we thought we were going to get a lot of, because on the way to the shoot, she was in a massive huff and promised to refuse to smile the whole time. of course when we got there, she couldn't stop smiling... so Channa kept having to ask her to put on a straight face.)
The Usual Suspects
we are all fans of the urban decay look, and none of us have issues with climbing stones for art
so much smiling!
