Just Being Boys

I admit it may have taken me just over four years to figure out how to photograph our boys, but over the weekend I tried some new tricks...and they worked!!  First off, look at those wonderful smiles!!  I did not get those by asking them to once again say "cheese".  They are laughing and smiling so awesomely because I told them to call each other dorks!  They would get into their usual poses and boringly say cheese like good boys, but to no avail my picture would be less than stellar.  Saturday I said, "call your brother a dork!", they laughed hysterically and mom got priceless smiles!  It was a win win situation.  I would take this silly, fun, natural looking photo any day over a forced smile picture.  I already have plenty of those!  Scouting for new places to take pictures is half the fun.  Olde Town Arvada has some wonderful places to use as backdrops, and I plan very soon to make my mom come with me to help take more pictures of my five favorite subjects!  Let's just hope "dork" holds out for a while before I have to use "dumbass"!!  :)
