My 9 year old daughter has some anxiety issues that make her difficult to parent (and home school). She makes situations worse than they need to be and challenges my patience more than all of my other children combined. But every day she gets her two year old brother up from his nap and she begs me to let her hold the baby. When I took these photos<\/a> she begged me to take photos of her and Nathan. <\/p>\n

There are days when I have to deal with people that don’t see this side of her. But to me, these are the perfect portraits of the little girl I love. Not quite technically perfect but they show how lucky some little boys are to have her for a sister.<\/p>\n

During this crazy morning, I also tried to get some images of Nathan on our very snazzy Sactionals couch. The couch pictures didn’t quite turn out because Nathan pretty much hated being posed and I wasn’t really in the mood to push it, but I was happy with this one – I even got a little bit of a smile.<\/p>\n

My two year old may have interfered with my motivation as well. Here is his very first photo bomb.<\/p>\n

It’s funny now, but was decidedly not funny at the time.<\/p>\n

And inspired by this photo<\/a>, I let my kids have at. The concept was not quite as well executed but this is me as a mommy-photographer. I am clearly much more successful when I am not being a mommy and a photographer at the same time. The cobbler’s children have no shoes – my kids have quasi professional photos of themselves. C’est la vie.<\/p>\n
