I liked doing this one. It was a live sitting which I prefer given the choice. I also got a chance to work with the half-body instead of only the portrait… We posed this several ways, I shot photographs which we reviewed to see which pose would work out the best. I love children, having had a couple of my own, but for a lengthy sitting there’s nothing like a real live adult who will do exactly what you ask…
