Let’s have some fun!

It was my youngest daughter’s last day to be five years old. The next day we would celebrate her 6th birthday. It’s our family tradition to take a picture of the kids holding their “Last Day ?” sign and I will sometimes use that as an excuse to have some fun with my gear. After Izzy, My oldest got Viv, The birthday girl, all dressed up and made up for the shoot we loaded our wagon with lighting gear and headed to the park for a nice location. on the way we spotted some beautiful fluffy foliage and Izzy thought it would make good wings for the pic. I wasn’t sure how she was going to make them work with the fancy dress Vivie was dressed in but why not let her try? I wanted a sunset shot with the sun setting behind Viv, but we had lost the sun already. I guess I was going to make my own ;) All the kids got totally into the shoot, helping me hold down light stands and give Vivie posing prompts, and although there is no last day sign in this shot, I love it the most because Vivie was really hamming it up.
