Annual Pictures

We went for our annual pictures at Portrait Innovations tonight. We do it in March because it is between their birthdays and that works out well for us. The kids were silly, but we got some good ones. I am listing what we have of the pictures for family and friends who want them. Just let me know what you want. The first pose we have the most of. 1 8x10, 4 5x7's, 4 31/2x5's and 32 wallets. It is cropped in the picture and you do not see their legs.

We just had to get this one. As Derek said, "Aubrey looks like she is up to no good!" This one is also cropped right about where Aubrey's shirt ends. It is amazing at all the clothes they have in their closets, but we still had to make a trip out today to get something that coordinated well. As luck would have it I had a bow to match perfectly. I usually give myself more time to plan pictures and today was a last minute decision since we did not have any plans for the day.
1 5x7, 4 31/2x5's, 8 wallets

Our sweet little Aubrey - can you believe she is 3! She so did not want to place her hands correctly, or leave them there is more like it and was having more fun playing than sitting still. It is amazing we got a good one. This one is cropped about at her knee
3 5x7's and 8 wallets
Ethan who was tired and has a tooth coming in, but was a good sport anyway. It is weird writing 6 on the back of the pictures since that is what he will be in one month.
3 5x7's and 8 wallets
This picture is turned so it does not seem like she is leaning. It took a lot to get those hands to stay put and not have her dancing and turning circles on the backdrop.

This one really captured Ethan's personality. It is cropped close to his thumb.

This is my favorite fun picture. The photographer suggested trying to have Aubrey on Ethan's back and we were not sure he could do it. By golly he did! He was still smiling even while be choked by Aubrey! Too cute!
1 8x10, 2 5x7's and 8 wallets.

Let me know what you want and I will get them in the mail.

Here are a few of the bloopers and a couple that we liked, but did not get....we could not get all of them!

Yep, she was picking her nose!She loved this rocking chair, but would not stop rocking in it to get a very good picture.
We liked this one, but had the same pose last year.This shows a little bit of the silliness that was going on....lots of laughing and playing.

The pictures are great. Aubrey is such a trip, and it's funny to watch Ethan just laugh at her. They are really good photos!

You should try the one in Huntersville. We had good luck at that one when living in Concord.
