This is how Madyson and I started the second part of our shoot. Yes, there was a little screaming, but there was also laughing, running, dancing, rolling around and a short break for some girl talk. Of yea, and there was chocolate chip cookie dough after the shoot. :))

Madyson insisted on wearing her ruby red princess slippers. I LOVED her choice of footwear. She is definitely going to be a shoe girl. I probably should start saving money now for the Manolo Blahniks…

After a change of clothes, Madyson lost interest in me taking more photos of her. She seemed to be bored with me and my camera.

Very bored. She is staring out into space and simply ignoring me….ha.ha.

I imagine she is saying to herself…”Oh my, not more photos“…

This is Madyson’s fake smile for me. Notice the hand on her hip. For exaggerated purposes, I’m sure.

In order to get her re-motivated to the cause, I allowed her some “Madyson-time”. Some time for her to do anything that would make her happy & smiley. This is what I got.

Shortly thereafter, it was back to being bored with me.

Since she wanted a break, we just lay in the grass and talked. I still snapped a couple awesome images, but mostly I loved the time we spent…just hangin’ and chillin’…together.

And there was rolling in the grass, on Madyson’s part. I had seen dog poop earlier, so I declined to join in the fun.

Dr Jekyll (on left)…Mr Hyde (on right)…LOL.

More time to just lay and talk.

Madyson loves her ruby red princess slippers and I am glad I caught this moment. She was admiring how beautiful & sparkly they were.

and more admiring…

and finally, Madyson acknowledged my requests and gave me a quickie smile.

and more rolling and rolling…

I’m just glad I’m not responsible for the laundry. LOL. Sorry Anna…but, I think you are very use to grass in the hair and grass stains on the clothes….ha. ha.

This is where it got “almost” too hilarious for me to continue shooting. Madyson threw her hands up and said “I quit“. She told me she was done with photos and then reiterated to me louder…”I quit“. I just laughed and told her she couldn’t quit “my” photo shoot, but she just ignored me. She then rolled her eyes (which she probably gets from me) and she was done. I snapped a couple more last photos and released her. LOL.

Too funny…Madyson acted like I was torturing her. I was NOT, I promise…LOL. She is such a drama queen sometimes, but I love her!

This is Madyson’s fake smile, one last time. You can actually see the strain in her neck muscles as she grits her teeth and attempts very hard to give me a happy look.

One last “almost genuine” smile…

Thank You Madyson! Y-O-U always remind me to laugh out loud, to dance like nobody is watching, to enjoy small things like rolling in the grass (even when dog poop may be nearby) and most importantly…YOU remind me to always SMILE big, even if it’s a fake one…ha.ha.

love you bunches! =:P
