me: "Hey Kayla, can I have a kiss?"
She turns and gives me the back of head and pushes it onto my face.
me: "I want to kiss your cheek Kayla, not the back of your head!"
Kayla: "But you are pokey!" (referring to my morning stubble)
me: "I'm not pokey, come on, give me your cheek to kiss."
Kayla: "Why are you not pokey? Did you shed? I'll let you kiss me if you shedded."
That's the funniest thing ever! Oh your kids are so sweet.
ReplyDeleteAny tips on getting very shallow DOF while using strobes without blowing everything out?
ReplyDeleteShedding. I love it. Very cute photos. You've got adorable daughters, and you do a wonderful job of presenting them to the world.

I love the way her mind works...Kids are the bestest.
ReplyDeleteoh,!!!! I love your bloog! And kids are so cute :)
ReplyDeleteI can't get over how beautiful the girls (and photos) are!! What lens did you use for these photos?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind words all : )
ReplyDeleteKevin, I left a response on the fb page, but I'll add it here too. There are a few ways to do this. You can shoot the lowest power possible on your flash. Use additional layers of diffusion on your light modifier. Use ND filters on your lens. Or in this case, I used the new Pocket Wizard TT5's which allow me to use HSS and sync at 1/8000th of a second. Hope that helps.
Ari K, I used a 35mm for the 1st 2, and an 85 for the last.
I chanced upon this journal and I am so taken by your photographs! Your girls are very blessed to have such a creative dad. How lovely it must be for them to have these photos as keepsakes!
ReplyDeleteso cute :) and lovely story :) greetings :P
ReplyDeleteWhat a funny but sweet dialogue between Daughter and Daddy! Adorable little lady she is！
ReplyDeleteso cute!! :)
ReplyDeleteKayla looks more and more like Kristin now ^^ They are really beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteI love your blog, the pictures, your creativity and of course your sweet girls! I have three boys (now 13, 11 and 5.5) and like to take funny pics of them, too...your "shedding" story reminded me of my middle son, Manoah...when he was about 5. We were walking through a store when Manoah spotted a Wilkinson razor-display shelf, calling out "Mom, look - there are the peelers!" :-)
