these are just a few photos my 6yo Cassandra took yesterday. she is usually my model (as u will see in my portrait folder in my portfolio) so when i finally let her go around taking photos all by herself she decided to take a few of me and i couldnt tell her no. thanks to elli(mesmeraj) and the digital development for kids which i took both my girls to. We created a monster! as soon as her eyes opened this morning she asked if she could take some photos today after school. now i need to scrape some money together for two camera ( plus money for my dslr)....oh gosh...what have i done? the family that shoots together stays together,right.

yep thats him. and it will too...im going hunting with him this year. im just hopeing my trigger finger is faster than his! but i wont be going hunting with him until the weather drops down to at least too cold for snakes. the rattle snakes have been very active (and huge) this year. ther have been several 100+ pounders and 6+ feet long killed(one was sent to a zoo somewhere) this summer already and we are just now getting in to the hottest part of the year

Have to agree with the LOL @ your old man. ;-)

I think it's great that you've got them started and that they enjoy it! Although I'm sure the expenses will start to add up! I know that whenever my niece (just turned 5) visits, she always wants to take shots with my camera too. It's fun and she takes some pretty doggone good pix too! :-)

The only other thing I have to add is... 100+ lb. rattlesnakes?!? OMG! PLEASE don't let them cross state lines! ROFL

She has some talent, look at that already using the rule of 3rd's, just need her to straighten the camera out and she would be the youngest ribbon winner. :)

Actually on a couple of those the tilt looks cool, adds to the picture.
