Picture People
We figured with birthdays and mother's/father's days coming up it would be a great idea to get some pictures of the three of us together and Maddie by herself at The Picture People. 99% of the time Maddie is pretty easy going and goes along with the flow of whatever it is we do. She was pretty good until we actually had to sit down and begin taking pictures.
Maddie was facinated with the camera and whatever was going on behind it. It probably wasn't the best choice of the photographer to put an infant in an area where she can see all the people pass by. Maddie kept crawling out of the picture area to go see what was going on.
When it was time for her solo shots it took quite the effort to even get her to look at the camera and not scratch the background. After 2 or 3 poses Maddie 'hit the wall' and we were done. She became very tired and hungry and cranky. Not a good combo. We got our time card to return and walked around the mall. After our hour waiting time we went back to view the results. We were not so impressed with most of the pictures. It was unfortunate but we did manage to get 1 or 2 decent shots. I don't know if we'll be going back to that location (the one at Willowbrook Mall) as the photographer wasn't what we would have liked.
I'm sure we'll get a few more shots with another location. We also have an appointment with JC Penny's photo place on Sunday with Grandma Marlene so we'll see how they come out.
