Photographing my child

It seems like parents often apologize for their child’s behavior during a photography session. The majority of the time, there is nothing to apologize for.  Their children are being normal children, and no matter what, they are not as difficult as my own child.

Me : “Can I take your picture?”

Mini Me: “Sure, but I have to hide behind a leaf. Those are the rules mom.”

Being a parent, I get the struggles.  I also love picture like this that truly capture little ones, and their personality.  Even with his face behind a leaf, this is a perfect portrait of her, and her feisty personality right now.
