Photo of the Day – 18 – Take #2! | Personal Work
April 19, 2010After quite a few lazy days, I finally got off my bottom and took Gwen out for some photos this afternoon. Now, I know I’ve taken photos very similar to these before (angel wings, field, etc etc), but today Gwen wanted to use the wings, anything else and she wasn’t interested. So not only am I rehashing an old idea, I even had to include the added bribe of a candy watch for her to participate at all!
I must say, even though we’ve done these before, I do love some of todays! It’s very cool to look back and see how much more grown up she looks in the face, with her expressions, how she’s changed as my “model”. I can’t believe she’s growing up so fast!
Gwen posed herself today, so there’s a fair bit of her trademark poses going on! Oh, and if anyone’s wondering why her eyes are closed in nearly all the photos, the sun was too bright for her eyes and if I asked her to open them, it was just an argument waiting to happen!
I think this is possibly my favorite from today, but it’s too hard for me to choose!


I think this was the end of the eye contact for a while!

Gwen’s pose, through and through. The light was beautiful this afternoon, too. Pitty she isn’t really as sweet as she looks most of the time!


Love her little hands. I think she was being coy here. She could have looked at me if she really wanted to.

She was standing it quite the perfect spot for the sunray behind her… Well, perhaps one step her her right and it would have been perfect! Not quite sure what she’s doing with her hands or thinking, but it’s cute none the less!

Looking quite the grown up little lady.

Doing the “Chicken Butt Dance”. Apparently Mr Jones, her P.E teacher taught her class the chick butt dance. Now, I’d really love to know if she’s misheard the name, but since the first week or two of school she’s being going on about this dance and she get’s quite angry if I question her on the name.. So it really must be right!

Gorgeous light in this spot.. We were on our way back to the house after I was attacked by ants time and time again. How she didn’t step in all the nest’s I did, I’ll never know! Love how her hair looks here.. Beautiful! (If I do say so myself!)

We weren’t allowed to go to the house until she posed on the log. She’s getting quite brave actually, she lay down on the log, got dirty, and it was very tricky to lay down on it without falling off.. 6 months ago she wouldn’t have had a bar of it!
