Wouldn't it look cool if dry ice were in this cauldron with smoke billowing out?

I can't remimber what game she was playing here, but didn't it turn out cute as a picture?I just wanted to show off the pictures that I took of Lauren in her Halloween costume. A co-worker, Jessica, made the the tutu, wings, bow, and magic wand for Lauren. The adorable orange and black striped tights are from Gymboree...(I love, love, love Gymboree clothing for Lauren!) Let me tell you what an excellent job that Jessica did with this tutu! It all looked perfect down to every last detail, including the colorful tulle, Halloween ribbons, and spiders! This had the be the cutest outfit that Ladybug has ever dressed in! You can search her store on http://www.etsy.com/. Look for her store, called Dancing Elf Designs.
I had been taking Ladybug to Target portrait studio to purchase pictures of her for the last 3 Halloweens. However, this was my first year to do them myself since I now own my new flash, the Nikon sb600. Let me tell you how much I am loving that flash! It was really helped me "step it up a notch" with my photographs. Actually, I get upset because Wal-mart and Walgreens don't want to seem to print out my photos anymore because they claim they are professionally done! I suppose that is a major compliment, however, it is a royal pain because I am having to type up a letter for my mom (for example) to show that I give her permission to print out my work! So, what's the point of doing my own photography if I can't get them printed out locally? I am researching good, professional websites and online photo labs to upload all of my work to, now.
Lauren did a great job with this photo shoot. Actually, I did it over the course of 2 days because I realized after the first session was over that I had forgotten an important part of her costume, the adorable little magic wand! To change up the look of the pictures, I decided to alter the costume to make it a hip, little witch's outfit. To do this, we took off the wings and added a few props. I had purchased the witch hat, cauldron, and broom from Wal-mart and was so excited that the props turned out so cute for the witch portraits. We also used our own pumpkin from the front porch as well as some silk decorative leaves from the dining room to add to the pictures. I am lucky to have such a cooperate, little model....as long as I don't put her through this too often!
