When Nancy and I talked about her goals for their family portraits, she expressed to me how much she longed for a photo of her daughter with a real smile.  This is a super common concern and something I’m asked about often.  How can I get my child to give me a real smile instead of a toothy, cheesy, jaw clenching grin that can be spotted as fake from a mile away?  Well the first thing I always tell parents is to hold the cheese! While many kids are conditioned at a young age to say “cheese” whenever a camera is pointed their way, this Pavlovian response is exactly what you don’t want.  The key to getting real smiles is having FUN!

And that’s exactly what we did.

Loads of real smiles coming your way… 🙂
