A client of mine who I've done many projects for asked if I could try to emulate the style of portraits she has of her granddaughter's, taken in the late 50's and early 60's. She was able to bring in the albums that held a series of beautifully printed 4x5 inch prints. This morning I had the pleasure of meeting her granddaughter, her husband and her charming little 2 year old great grand daughter. As is my usual practice we held off the photo session until I could gain the trust of this adorable little girl. This is done through a series of questions, silly noises, more questions, prompting mom to sit where I want the girl to sit and so on. If anyone has ever tried to get a two year old to do exactly what you want them to do, you know that is a pretty challenging task. I am very pleased with the results and I'm posting a few of my favourites here -RN
