Tame the Toddler

If you seem to be having difficulty getting a picture of your toddler when he is still, here is a suggestion for you.  As the sun is getting ready to set, strap your beloved child into the car seat and go for a drive.  Drive around looking for a good spot where the setting sun casts a glow on your child that illuminates him beautifully.  Snap pictures from the front seat.  Play peek-a-boo… let him look out the window at something that interests him… make a game of it.  Snap pictures while sitting at red lights when he isn’t paying you any attention and then find a place to park the car for an impromptu photo session.  All the while, making sure that the light that is cast on your sweetie is glowing.  Here is an example of a recent session with my own toddler.
