So Long Creepy Family Photo Lining Our Hallway

I bought 4 large frames for the hallway several months ago, and Scott ever so kindly hung them immediately.  It was kind-of creepy walking down the hallway with the same black and white photo of an unknown family lining the wall.

Starting with my easiest subjects to photograph was a given.  

 Andrew is incredibly cooperative and obedient, but photos aren't his thing.  He feels uncomfortable with any individualized attention even if it is coming from his mother.  Needless to say, his photos are usually awkward.  I worked really hard to create a comfortable atmosphere with little pressure, and it worked like a charm.

Then I was faced with my greatest photography challenge at this moment in time.  I tried capturing a beautiful photo of my absolutely adorable subject on multiple occasions.  Hundreds of blurry photos of an uncooperative 3 year old were taken, and then...I gave up and called this "good enough".

Thankfully, I have lived through this stage before, and I now recognize the value of this photo.
