Finally...Good Pics of My Son!

A few weeks ago, when I was visiting family in Staten Island over the holidays, my sister-in-law asked if I could take a few shots of my nieces so she can update the photos of them on her wall.  Within a few minutes, we all got ready (quickly), ran outside and snapped a few photos.  Turns out, the photos came out really well.  So well that my mother-in-law called and asked for, not only prints of my nieces, but she asked if I could get together some nice pictures of Callia and Nick, too!

It seems easy enough, I'm taking pictures all the time, but this task was far greater than she could ever imagine.  For the most part, my daughter has no problem taking some time from her day to pose for her momma.  My son, however, has an aversion to his mommy's camera.  He does not like it.  So as I was getting ready the other morning, trying once again to capture my mini-Elvis shot (that I missed the day before), my son decided pull all the stops and cheese it up for his mommy.  And yes, the situation was exactly the same as yesterday.  The only difference is that he was a willing participant.  And, while my boy finally gave me some to die for poses, his location of choice was much to be desired.
