If you get creative, you can do the same thing at home!

Even though I had the benefit of studio lights, you can do this with your point and shoot too.

I used a wicker bench I have and covered it with "snow" and placed two silk poinsettias on the rear of the bench and two on the floor. I used three small fake trees from Michael's for the sides.

Get in close and fill your frame and take the photo! If you have clutter in the background, find a plain white sheet (or red or black or green) and put it up behind the setup to hide the clutter.

I use these items when I photograph children. Think small and get eye level when you take the photo.

Carter is now 17 1/2 months, Cooper is almost 10 months and Crissy is now 16 weeks old.

Thanks everyone!
