The Easter Card Project - Take One

I never sent out birth announcements, so I was thinking of doing an Easter card. Round One of the photo shoot took place last night.

We start by setting up the shot with the more patient and well behaved of the subjects...



With props...



Grant’s ears fell off, and he decided that was a release for his "stay" command. When Grant got up and left, Harry decided he could go, too, and grabbed an egg for the road.



Egg was removed from Harry’s mouth, dogs were put back in position, and bunny ears replaced. Then, we add the final subject...



Sydney says, "No Mommy! I hate this!"

Dogs say, "So do we, kid. Get used to it!"

This one turned out much better...



Tonight I’ll try with a nicer outfit and some other prop ideas.

Huge thanks to Lance and Jalyce for letting us borrow the Bumbo seat. Despite the screaming picture, she seems to love it!

Our dogs would have ate the eggs and the ears for starters. They really like little kids. Not to eat just to play with.
