Chenoa, at first it was hard for me to pronounce that beautiful name, well it is my weakness to pronouncing name goodly.
Her Mom called me to make a birthday photo-shoot for her and her best friends on her Birthday.
It turned out to be a really fun experience for her and for me. Of course I learnt a huge amount at the same time. Girls, I am lucky to have a son…
I think I will spend all my money on accessories and clothing if I have a daughter.
But I also learn not to rush when they have to get ready!

If you think it is just easy to take a picture of these group, you are wrong…
It was not easy yet it was challenging, I think much talking through this with them is kinda helping them to get relax. I told them that they look great, one by one I whispered nice things about their look and give them the confidence to believe in themselves
When they get to know me, and relax -then let’s just do it!

This is exactly what I did to achieve the looks each time:

1. Ask them to stand in a row, or get them into the position/shape you feel looks best.
2. Give them a command :
“look to your left”
“Smile to each other”
“Give me the doll look!”
“Oh… stay still you look gorgeous!”
“All look towards me and say ‘Pizza’
3. Pep talk is always helping…

By end of the shoot, the girls are all feeling much more relax, happy and confident. They just star to give me their own pose, some of them even wanted more session 🙂 – So, I decided to give each of them some individual shots…I love to make girls happy. I love to see them changing to become more confidence in front of my camera.
