Photographer's Daughter

I don't know how it is for other photographer's children, but I have not gotten a good portrait of my daughter since she was 8 months old. As soon as she got really comfortable being photographed, and she got used to the studio as a second home, all bets were off. She knows where the fun props are and she loves hiding between the hanging backdrops. Every time we've tried a new portrait with her in the last 2 years she's ran the gamut from extremely disobedient to playfully uncooperative. Don't ask me how we did it, but somehow we snapped this gem. I can only assume my wife offered her a million Barbie dolls if she would smile for one picture. At this point, I'm so happy to have a great portrait of her that I might just buy them for her.
