Yesterday
Joy commented on my post about
how to get your kids to smile. She wondered if that strategy would work on her husband. I'm not really sure I want to try it, but I have another one that works for my husband. Observe.
Lee and Ben took a break in the action at the zoo in a spot with a great background, and some beautiful indirect light. They were playing a little game while I went to work. Lee was obviously sticking with his own game and not planning on playing along with mine.
So I took the
pressure attention off him and turned to my boy, who was completely and utterly ignoring me. Perpetual motion, this boy.
Then I got Lee back in the frame, and he had obviously figured out that I wasn't going away anytime soon. Maybe if he just humored me for a sec.
I wouldn't be pacified that easily, but I had found my crack in the facade. Now it was a head on contest.
When he starts scrunching up his face, that's when I know I'm going to win. Because it makes me laugh, and when I laugh...
...he laughs.

Great work Tracy! Your husband is pretty free with his smiles normally. I'm surprised that you have to trick him at all! I love the pic of him though.
LOL - too cute!!! You can see him starting to crack.
LOVE it! Great pictures ;o)
And The Boy has a smile just like The Dad. Love all of these Superior Snaps...even the ones where your subjects were "elsewhere"...
Very nice! Great post and a very good technique to make him smile!
This is great Tracy. He is such a good sport.
I should do a post on all the shots I have of Keith totally not cooperating. That would get him huh.
Lee has a great smile. He can't pull off the frownie face for too long. ha
