Christmas Picture Attempts

This year, I tried something risky. I took the Christmas pictures of the kids myself. At home. In a makeshift portrait studio in my livingroom. With a point and shoot.

I'm pretty happy with how they turned out. Never one to hold in a secret very well, I'm showing you all my faves in the hopes you can help me decide which ones to send out to our relatives. (

1. (Actually was a practice shot, but I kind of like his expression)

2.
3.
4.
5.
And just to keep it real, here's what I had to delete a lot of before I resorted to bribery:


Oh, and Daddy likes this one best because the yellow chair annoys him. I'd have to crop it a little, but what do you think?

6.

I'm still working on one of the two of them together. There may be a LOT of bribery involved if I actually get that shot!

  1. I like # 3, 5 and 6. The pics look great, how did you get the background to look all black? I am going to try one last time with the boys (after 2 attempts) and hopefully I'll get something. The more kids you have, the harder to get a pic together. Maybe I should learn from you a photograph them apart!

  2. #2, 5 and 6 are my picks. Those are all super adorable, though. I really enjoy the blurry one of KK for some reason ;)

  4. Gosh, its hard to choose, they are all good shots. I love the expression of KK in that blurry shot! I like #3 - there is something about JJ's pose that seems endearing; KK's dimple in #5 is too cute, plus I really like the open expression on her face. #6 is good too, but I like #3 a bit more.
