Portrait Shoot

Today's goal -- get good photos of Girly and The Boy for use in Grandma's Christmas card and to replace those awful and quite expensive ones taken at school. Girly's pics turned out pretty good. Here she is waiting for me to finish adjusting the lights. However, The Boy is scheduled for retakes on Saturday. Black shirt on a charcoal background = poor choice by me. And, since he's taller than me now, I realized I was capturing the underside of his chin! Guess I need a posing stool or a pair of high heels...

PS: In case you don't recognize that contraption, it's a knitting loom and she's working on a knit hat for herself.
