Photographing children is a challenge we love. It is often unpredictable especially when you have more than one child at the session. We have to move and photograph fast before children lose an interest in photography. This work for us just fine. We do not force certain poses or behavior and let children play. Then we are looking for moments when they forget about us and act like themselves. That’s the time to get those real authentic precious photographs of the childhood. Eventually we build a trust with the children and they let us take some portraits.
This is exactly what happened here with these two little sisters. We went into the park on the West side in Manhattan. Girls were into the kissing, running and jumping. After a while we went back home and here they finally agreed to pose for a second or two :)

She gave us tons of fake smiles, but we got a real one in the end.
