I have the priviledge of taking the preschool photos at the Shoreview Community center each year. It is enjoyable working with the staff and the munchkins.
I have learned NOT to ask the 2-5 year olds to say Hi to me because they are unable to do this without raising a hand to wave. It makes me smile each time.
Thank God for photo shop so I can swap heads in and out of my main photo. It is a challenge to get 16 two and a half year olds to look at the camera at the same time!!
This family came in before one of the class sessions and asked for a picture of just the kids. Since I had limited chairs and prop supplies with me, I used the Mom as a chair and we put the baby in her lap. Back at my computer, I was able to erase her from the photo. It was much easier to do this rather than try and get the siblings to hold the baby in my makeshift classroom studio. Plus I just had a couple minutes to take their photo.
In the first image, I actually like the expression on Mom's face as she looks with joy at her brood. I ended up printing both images for them to have because I like having Mom in the image, but since they requested just the chilren they get both.
