Puzzle Pieces

Here is a photo from a shoot I did in the park last weekend. Large group shots with little ones can be difficult to maneuver... just when you get the kids to smile, the parents are looking away or blinking. And the editing can be like putting together a puzzle if you don't end up with one great shot. For this first photo I actually combined three photographs to get the one great shot with everyone looking. I included thumbnails of the individual photos this one shot required to create. Click on it to enlarge and see the pieces. If you look closely, the little guy's head in the top left corner is circled in two different shots--that's because I had to combine both of them to get a good one of him. Anyway, it was a fun shoot. I love this family! They were troopers--even though it was very cold outside! The rest of the photos will come in the next day or two.
