Hi everyone! I hope everyone had a nice day today! I am stopping by my blog tonight to post about the July 4th pictures that I took of my kids two weeks ago! I try to take a unique photo of my kids for each Holiday. It's just a fun way to play around with some ideas, in the event I ever decide to do the same types of pictures for clients. This is my way of rehearsing and learning what works and what I need to improve on! My children are good cooperative models for me!
So, for this year's July 4th mini session, I took my kids to John Rudy Park for some "fancy" pictures of them. Since it was hot out, I went with the popsicle idea... it was a good idea in theory because the popsicles are red, white and blue.... One thing I learned, no- TWO things that learned that day...my popsicles were really small and melted almost right away. I should have bought the kind of pops that are like two pops stuck together with two sticks, if that makes sense. They melted really fast and the color disappeared. If I had to do it again, I would definitely have had my husband come with me and hand them the pops once I was ready to take the photos instead of handing them their pops and running back to set up my camera settings..... I tried to get the kids to stop eating them when the red color disappeared but they just looked at me like I couldn't be serious, haha!
This was last year's July 4th image from me.........I still love it! Oh my goodness, he is wearing the same shirt in this year's photos!
This year. Sophia and I hopped out of the car and I took this one! I had to snap one with those pretty flowers behind her.
And the popsicle pictures...........
