I had promised Rachel that I would take her to get her portraits done. But, since I got my new camera for Christmas and I saw Alice and Madeleine's photo shoot, I decided to try one ourselves. It was an absolutely beautiful day, so we took full advantage. We had a good time. I think Rachel really enjoyed it. She wore a skirt with her first outfit, so she was limited in the posing. I really preferred that shirt, but, unfortunately, the shoot went better with the second outfit - partly because she got more comfortable and partly because the light was better.
Our neighbors have a beautiful birch tree that we used. I really liked it as a backdrop. This was my favorite headshot picture of the bunch, but I really liked some of the kookier poses that we were trying.
At the end, I had her just model a little. I told her to express different emotions and then to just have fun with it. I loved both of the these pictures because she was pursing her lips (which I wish weren't so chapped) and looking off to the side. I hope I haven't created a monster!
Stay posted: new style coming tomorrow!

I like the jumping one and the last one. Rachel is one very pretty girl. Does David still have that shotgun of our grandpa's?
