i've been working on lots of projects right now. and i've been digging around for photos to use … and they have to match what i'm working on of course. and i also like to play fair. so when i had already used some photos of alyssa on one project, and a photo of both the girls on another project … i figured the next one had to have photos of sarah. but i couldn't find any that matched what i was working on. so we took these tonight.
love that she was willing to do these photos for me … it didn't take much convincing or bribing. lol! i had my color request in … and she brought down a stack of shirts that she thought would work. i had said blue … and she had blue … but not the right shade of blue. she didn't get why it wasn't ok … after all, it WAS blue. so i showed her the papers i had already picked out … and then she understood. so we went with black … because this shirt is adorable!
i felt bad … because she found the cutest capri jeans to wear … and her silver sparkley shoes. but we were only in the backyard … and our backyard is NOT for full body shots. and it was still early in the evening … and we still had almost all full sun. i had her standing in about a 2 foot section of grass where there was some nice, open shade … she was literally IN the plants along the side of the yard. i even trimmed a few brances that were showing … because they had purple flowers (there is no purple on my project!). i'm sure the plant looks all wonky now. and i was actually standing as far back as i could … almost behind the shed … where i'm sure there might have been a few lizards hanging out with me. lol!
all of 5 minutes … and we were done. simple as that. the girls have finally learned … that if they just give me what i want and do as i say … we'll be done in the blink of an eye! when we have more time … then we'll try and get more creative and venture into a new location. but for now … when under pressure … the backyard works!
and i have some awards to hand out … some blogging awards that i need to pass on. i have been lucky enough to receive a few … and i'm feeling so bad that it's taking me this long to play along. so i'll do that tomorrow!
