My boy and twin girls

[Raptor Mike]

So I have a load of camera gear but because I'm not into portrait (yet) I never really tog my family unless we're out or its Christmas or something. So after being on TP loads today I got a little inspiration and had a bit of a play around with the camera. Its so hard to get two three year olds to smile together while keeping still and looking down the lens lol. I use a Canon 60D with a Tamoron 17-50mm f2.8 Non VC, and a Canon Speedlite 430EX II with a diffuser cap

The kids are Isabelle (left) and Jasmin (right) both 3 years old, and the boy, Christopher who's 6 years old
C&C welcome

Thanks. I take my hat off to child photographers, they must have solo much patients. That's one reason I don't really do many lol

Also a bit of practice for TP day tomorrow.
