I was looking at an ad from Deseret Book for a book called "A Mother's Book of Secrets: Keys to Making Motherhood Memorable, Meaningful, and Magnificent" by Linda J. Eyre and Shawni Eyre Pothier. I got curious, and after a little bit of digging I found out that one of the authors of the book had taken all the pictures for her book. She did an interview with someone and gave a couple tips on how to take good pictures. I decided to give it a go.
Well what do you think?
Pretty good eh? I don't think I did too bad. It also didn't hurt that my children were happy and willing to play along. The best advice was to turn off the flash and to take pictures even if they didn't look at the camera. I will be taking many more I am sure!

sweet kids. Good job on the pics.
Brittany, I have told you before, but your kids are sooo adorable. What great pictures! Btw, I LOVE LOVE LOVE that book! The pictures are great and the book is even better, but I love that kind of stuff.
Wow u got so sweet kids..and u captured some amazing moments there...love it ..love it my friend
You did a great job! The natural lighting is so much better, I think. I always shoot without the flash, or use the big attachment one and point it at the ceiling. Keep trying the weird angles, they'll surprise you. I like not having pictures where the kids are looking, they aren't so posed and you can get a fun look. Remind me to explain the tic-tac-toe to you in regards to pictures, if you don't already know about that...
Turning off the flash is almost always a really good plan...the natural light in most of these is lovely...
