{christmas} card maddness…

12.01.2008

As every obsessive mother/photographer will tell you, the search for the epic Christmas card photo is an adventure only suited for the strong at heart, mind, and soul. {Occasionally one must use upper body strength, so a good work out plan doesn’t hurt either} As usual, my endeavor for the perfect picture of my two ‘lovely’ ladies started in July. Yup…July. And, here we are, 3 weeks before big ol’ Saint Nick comes knocking, and the perfect photo has eluded us once again.

Exhibit A:

Well…at least they look cute.

sharon - Adorable!

bobbi - I love this shot and would totally use it! I know how you feel though, I have such a tough time getting my two together. This really captures their personalties though.

Shannon Fergus - Love your daily mantra . . . I'd a rock star by the way! LOL I really like this picture . . . she has such a cute expression, almost like she's about to start giggling big time! Good luck with your christmas photo!!

Pat - Mandy, your girls always look so cute, and I LOVE this shot--so cute! Does anyone EVER get the perfect photo?? It seems to be as elusive as the Yeti.

Kristen - I think it's darling! Everytime I see a picture of one of your girls I smile. You capture their innocence so perfectly!

Margaret - I absolutely love it! Your captures are always so creative and fun!

Nessa - Yeah, this year I did individual shots for our Christmas card because I just couldn't handle trying to get all of us looking halfway normal! Great shot!

ginnie - Oh Mandy, I just adore that shot!

amy - Adorable shot! I think this is just perfect for a Christmas card! :)

Angela2932 - All your pictures of your little sweeties are wonderful! Very creative cropping and POV; I love the little grin at the elbow!

Becky (finsup) - It's so cute! I can't get a picture of my two together where they don't look like statues. :-( I got that Christmas card holder on my blog in a gift shop by the movie theater in Oxford. (I can't remember the name of it, but in Maine that description works, right?)

heatherbauers - I've given up on getting that "perfect" shot. I totally say you should use this one though, it's so telling of their childhood antics and personalities.

Nicole - Takinf pics of my own kids is madness!

Brenda - The perfect picture is "any" one with your kids in it. They are so adorable.

Rachael - That is a wonderful shot. I totally gave up on getting a picture of my two together and settled for two separate ones where they were both looking at the camera. :)

Melissa - I agree your girls always put a smile on my face! They are beautiful and so smiley!

jess - Aww, this shot is perfect to ME! They are darling, they always manage to make me smile! I gave up the idea of the "perfect" Christmas card photo a long time ago, now I'll settle for them all looking at me at the same time! LOL!

redsie05 - I think it is adorable!!! I love it!! :)
