Trying to get the right picture!! - 03-14-2005, 02:51 PM


I've been taking a whole lot of baby pictures recently to try and get that "perfect shot" of my daughter for the cutest baby contest I was going to enter her in. But between the bad weather, (except this last weekend!!) and our daughter teething it can be very hard to get a good shot. I took this one at the kite festival. I think it's pretty good but I'm not using this picture for my entry. I think I can do a lot better, but that doesn't stop me from sharing the picture with you all!! :lol:

I think it's adorable! My only problem would be printing as it seems square.

Cute kid. I love taking pictures of my kids

Have you taken pictures that could possibly embarras her when she's older? Maybe I'm an evil father, but I have just a few. Just in case she decides to challenge me in front of her friends (when she's a teen), there will be some pics that accidentally make there way to the living room (insert evil laugh here).

Oh yeah, I have. So far I've got the "naked baby laying on the rug" shot and a number of interesting facial expressions. Some of the pictures I have already put in a photo album for all to see when people come over to visit. :twisted:
