![Photographing little ones doesn’t have to be stressful!
Here’s a l trick: turn it into a game! 🎯 Ask them to “find the camera” with their eyes, race to see who can give the biggest smile, or have them whisper a silly secret to their sibling.
The best smiles are the ones they don’t even know they’re giving! 😁
