Well, I really wanted nice pictures of the kids (particularly Adelaide -- Will is already prominently displayed about our home, trust me) but I really didn't want to pay an arm and a leg to a professional photographer. So I made my own little set-up -- basically a velour blanket thrown over a rocking chair, laundry basket, and diaper pail! -- with some nice light from Adelaide's window and an occasional prop from around the room. I couldn't be happier with the results -- in fact, the photo center at Wal-Mart here wouldn't give Ben my prints right away because they said they were obviously taken by a professional and we needed written consent to reprint them! (Not to brag or anything...) Ben had to argue with the lady for a while before he said there got to be a line behind him and he thinks he won the crowd over ("Seriously, my wife took these with a point-and-shoot digital camera at our house!) This one of the two kids, however, I think is just phenomenal, so I wanted to start out with it. Some other ones we like a lot follow.
