your children to smile for photos,
I bet my method is best.
Just say "smile," and you'll get:
 |
| Yes, this was her smile face. |
 |
| The infamous "peacing" now stands in for smiling. |
Naughty words work wonders. I shouted
penis! vagina! balls! at my children
and they produced these gems:
The trick is to wait until
the first round of giggles subside
(and you'll probably want to wait
until there's no one else around).
You can totally thank me later.

Haha! Love these, and I love your method!
Oh great idea! My kids are the worst picture models!
Snoring with laughter and loving every photo. How gorgeous and happy they look.
too funny - just hope they don't think now that shouting those words in public is acceptable behavior!
Hehehe! I needed a laugh this am. Good stuff. Great Christmas card photos with a great Christmas card story, no? {I've missed your space. So glad to be returning to normalcy and visiting.}
You know I'll be trying this!
I'll need reports from anyone who tries it. I promise you'll have a great story to tell! ;)
Amazing! I don't think it would work with Ems and Andy just yet, but you better believe I will be using this technique soon!
I am dying laughing! This simply confirms for me that you are among the coolest moms I know.
Where were you when my kids were little??!! I did the "cheese" thing...whoever thought of that didn't have a clue ~ you can actually tell in the photos that they're saying that silly word! Love these!
We have very similar approaches to photographing children: Lots of snickering and silly words around here too ;)
Kelly, great pics. I am glad no one else heard you ;)
Brilliant technique.
Excellent! (And for those worried about their saying them in public - teach them a few expletives in a foreign language!)
:)
Awesome! Will keep that in mind. Except I'll have to wait until my kids actually understand what those mean ;-)
Though the bottom pictures are truly lovely, I think I am more fond of the silly grin, but most especially Javi's peace sign. That is classic!
hahhahaahaha! good idea!
This made me laugh. And I am glad you got some great pics out of it. Look at all those lovely smiles.
That's hilarious - I'll have to remember that next time I photograph my friends!
bwah! you're a genius.
