The thing that drives me CRAZY is sometimes the light is perfect, I've got the right equipment, I have their cooperation and yet... *something* still isn't right. Like Nate's eye looking like Sloth from Goonies.

So then I take a gamble and fix the eye and get the boys to cooperate again and then Alex's eye looks like Sloth.

So then I take a gamble and fix the eye and the boys are done cooperating. And the picture I wanted to take - two smiling happy boys at the pool - never happens but the picture I do take is so much better than what I envisioned.

That Nate is priceless!
LOVE THE PIC!
oh laura, I feel your pain. It is IMPOSSIBLE for me to get a picture of both of my girls smiling & looking at the camera! SO frustrating!
Imperfect photos are the best! Both photos are adorable.
Michael always did that pose in all the ultrasound pictures!
Ah - but so much personality gets captured. (Or so I tell myself ...)
Hi there! You don't know me from Adam but I am related to Cathy E. She's my older sis. :-)I'm a fan of your blog too. Your post including the Goonies reference made me laugh aloud. Well done. You are one amazing Mom who has two terrific boys - may they get your great sense of humour. Keep on taking photos! {I swear I cannot get a good shot of my daughter unless she is watching tv. how sad is that?}Happy Summer!
Love, love, love the post, and love the Sloth eye. I enjoy reading about your journey with photography.
