lights, camera, say cheese!

Making Gracynn's birth announcement was so much fun, especially since I made them on TinyPrints.com There are so many different layouts and designs to choose from. But getting the pictures I needed for the annoucement was a task. I am no photograper, nor do I have the equiptment needed to take good pictures(props, backdrops ect.) So laying them both in Gracynn's crib was my brilliant idea. Trying to get a newborn to look at the camera, not cry and not blink from the bright flash is a challenge. Then add a very busy and very silly 3 year old into the mix and you have yourself an even bigger challenge. There were maybe 4 decent ones out of like 50. I thought I'd share some of the other ones with you that didnt make the final cut. I think they are so funny and so much more accurate to how things really are.





These pictures are so great. These were their first pictures together. I think I should of chose these silly ones and just put on the announcement "We proudly welcome Gracynn Tara Bove. Now there is more love, more fun and more craziness!"
