"Smile Honey!"


I don't know what happened, but somewhere along the way my big girl stopped smiling for pictures. She has the most naturally beautiful smile and is constantly flashing it to anyone who is around her, but for some reason whenever the camera is out I get shots like this:

I don't know if it's stage fright or what, but she simply forgets how to smile.
I say "Smile Honey!"
She says "Cheese"........ and then proceeds to give me a look like this:

That's why I am completely in love with this next picture...... it is by far my favorite shot that I've taken of my big girl in a looooong time- simply because she's actually SMILING!

Man, I love this girl!

    Love the smile! My daughter is six years old now and used to ALWAYS smile for the camera - now she does some fake - looks like her teeth are being grinded smile - drives me crazy! LOL

    She is gorgeous wither way but that smile is priceless. My little man went through that stage but now he is back to smiling for the camera. :)

    My two-year-old always looks so serious in pictures too! But it is so amazing when they finally do crack a smile--And what a great smile it is!

    Happy WW!

    Lately when I try to get pictures of my toddler, he's reaching for the camera and one of his thumbs is blocking the viewfinder. Ah well, at least *I* know how cute he is! ;)

    We're still lucky if A even looks in the direction of the lens.

    This is a great shot, Sara! One to treasure for sure :)

    Zoe is exactly the same way lately. It's so difficult to get a photo with a nice natural smile. Either she's pouting... or you can almost hear her yelling "CHEESE!!!" That last shot is beautiful.
