Great tip! Thanks Jessica!

I got a great tip from my friend Jessica about taking pictures. I am a really really amateur photographer at best but I feel like I have an eye for certain things and I love getting tips to help me make it better. Her's was to tell your subject, Emma in this case, that there was a storm trooper in the lens. The pic she has up of her boy is so stinking cute, I couldn't help but try it. Here's my result. The only thing that didn't work was that I forgot to tell Brent what I was up to and he kept telling Emma that there wasn't and of course I couldn't get her to smile! I used it again that night when we had dinner at the Walkers and both Aaron and Annie were so cute. Too bad Aaron was the only one who would smile for me. Emma has very chapped lips by the way in case you were wondering.

I do something similar but instead of a stormtrooper i tell them that there is a child eating monster. but you know, whatever works.
