[quote=Anonymous]I don't know why people are being so mean OP.  We had a similar issue with our 1 year old (now 5) and I learned a few things: (1) try to do a short shoot when someone is running a promotion; (2) outside is always better; (3) if the kid is really freaking out do a shot with you holding him and looking off in the distance (no faces); (4) bring snacks.  Lots of them.  Ones he doesn't normally get.  We bribed our then 2 and 4 year olds and got some great pics.  Even in the best of shoots you might get 5-6 really good shots.  We had one at my kids' school with an insanely expensive photographer and she got two decent pics but the rest were awful and my kids didn't click with her at all.  I know she's good because I've seen her work.  It just wasn't the right day and mix of personalities.  Ignore the haters and maybe do a funny card this year with one of the not great photos - put a funny caption on it and people will love it.  Anyone with kids knows that the REALITY of life, not the perfectly staged cards we all get.  I totally understand why you're emotional and I would be too but I think this is just one of those parenting moments where the idea doesn't link up with the reality of unpredictable little people:)  [/quote]
