I thought of this a couple weeks ago…I don’t guess it’s all that original of an idea, but I just HAD to do it.  Anna is quite the little chunk, so it took a sizeable pumpkin.  Mark and I saw this particular pumpkin while we were working in Paris earlier this week.  Just a guy selling pumpkins on the side of the road.  It was a little pricey, but we had had a hard time finding one large enough.  It turns out, we probably got one a little (or a lot) bigger than we needed!  Anyway…The ones with the black background didn’t turn out all that well I don’t think.  My lighting was off.  The ones outside are better.  I was working on getting proper exposure in manual mode with my DSLR.  I really like how they turned out…now if I could only get her to smile in a picture!  Incidentally, these are her 4 month pics.  She was 4 months old yesterday.  Say it with me, “I CAN’T BELIEVE SHE’S THAT OLD ALREADY!”  Ok, on to the pics:



And this was Anna’s favorite part of the shoot.  EATING the pumpkin!  LOL  She seemed to really enjoy it!  Too cute!
