any tricks to getting good pics of 2 kids?

EMT

My first real attempt was today.  Started out promising...

but very quickly went downhill to her trying to push him off the chair

Any tricks/poses that worked for you?

Yes...wait until they are asleep

See, I think the second photo is kind of sweet. ?I have a really cute one of my 2 at about that age and they look so adorable, lovingly looking at each other, smiling....but, if you look really closely, you'll see DD spitting on DS's face. ?Gotta love it.

Haha!  I think you prolly got the best you're going to get there!  I actually think those pics are very sweet!  You'll love them later!

The only way I can get good pics of the two of my girls is if I bribe Ash with fruit snacks or M&M's!

I definitely don't have any tricks-- its SO hard!  I just try taking as many as possible before we're to the point of no return... sometimes I end up with a half decent one.  But they are few and far between.  Yikes.

This is one of my favorites of my boys even though the camera lens was dirty over the baby's eye.

Yes I think you are onto something there.  I think the oldest is the key.  Getting them to cooperate is your best bet.  Cuz even if baby isn't looking at the camera and is looking at big sis, it's still a good pic.  I don't like my chair though.  Will have to try something different next time for the background

Sunshiny, that is super cute!  I'm totally stealing that one!

I bribe DD with pennies.  I tell her she can have a penny if she hugs or kisses him.  I also use bubbles but that is easier if you have 2 people.

when you find out let me know!!!

mine always end up in a choke hold!

lol, LOVE it! I bribe DD with chocolate. DS will do his own thing, no matter what, so getting Ry to cooperate at least is key. I make weird noises and hold a toy next to the camera lens to get T's attention.

Pin: I know she's not actually choking him but he does look like he's actually choking.  Too funny.
