No Smile!

Ms. C has been a little confused by my photo instructions. My preference for photos of the children is candid shots and decidedly not posed. But some of them are trained to smile or say "cheese" as soon as a camera is pointed at them, so I'm trying to break them of that rather obnoxious habit.

Ms. C takes it to extremes -- when I pick up the camera, she says "No smile!" and grimaces or frowns. She's a very expressive child, as this shoot from last summer shows.

She'll get there.
