THIS week I was asked if I could produce some photos of myself for a business thingy related to my Mum PR biz. Yep, that’s about as much as I’m going to tell you. Anyway, there was a bit of a contest going on between The Bloke in The Shed and Princess Ella as to who could take the better shot.
The Bloke in The Shed was rather impatient and just wanted to get inside to cook his steak. Ella, on the other hand, just kept clicking. She had all the photography poses going on and comments like: “Just back a little bit more for me’’ and “That’s it. Now smile’’. She’s not yet four.
Anyway, here is the end result:
The Bloke in The Shed's effort
And another from The Bloke.
Ella's first shot - with the flash producing all sorts of weird colours.
And Ella's masterpiece. Don't ask! I have no idea how she captured this!
I think I may need some professional help! What do you think?

Wow, at 4yrs old with a shot like that I would definitely be encouraging her with photography!

Thanks Amy.
Oh yes, she is ever the professional!! Hehe!
Ella takes an awesome photo. Very impressive! (She did have an easy job with such a stunning subject though) I’m sure if my boys tried you would have had lots of photos of feet

Awww, thanks Nee. That’s so nice of you to say. x
There were a few shots of the top of my head, one of a wall and one (deliberate one) of her own feet!! Go figure!
The photos are beautiful!

Ella’s masterpiece is fantastic!! With talent like that I’m not sure you need a professional!
Daisy recently posted..Huggies Nappy Pants Review & Giveaway
Hehe!! She’s pretty proud of herself, Daisy. After every shot, she’d say: “oh wow” as if she’d just taken a mastepiece!! Ha!
They are all gorgeous, but gosh, wasn’t Ella’s great!? Talent there!
Kate Sins recently posted..And the winner is… ME!
Oh, you should have seen some of the others, Kate! Walls, tops of heads etc!! Mind you, the old adage is that if you take enough photos at least one of them will turn out good!
Ella is a great photographer , you look gorgeous.

Hehe!! Yes, think the last one is a bit of a winner, Bronnie!!
Gorgeous pics!
Thanks!! x
I like Ella’s shots. Not so much the Bloke’s efforts (sorry). Oh, and the photo on my About page – my son took that one when he wasn’t even 2 yet (yes, it’s nearly 3 years old, I have to get him to take another one).

Ooh, I can’t recall what your About Me page pic was like! Off to have a look-see!!!
Loving these child photographers!
I think they are great shots…even Ella’s one. I quite like the second..looks very natural.
