I got the idea for this photo when I was at my cousin's place while on vacation. Her son is a bit of a finicky guy when it comes to falling and staying asleep, but after about a couple of hours of effort we managed to get him to fall asleep and stay that way while we slipped a book under his head, covered him with a blanket and placed a couple of other books around him. He was a tad disturbed by the activity and began frowning midway through the shoot.

The photo seems a little "average" to me. Of course I'm always critical of children in photos. :)

Hehe. Great idea. I find all of the flower patterns to be so distracting though. It this was done with mono-coloured sheets, I think the photo would pop a lot more.

cute setup. I think the open book should be turned so that it looks like it was being read, though.
