I still get many that I delete, but usually end up with a good one out of the bunch. Also, Maddie squints her eyes when she thinks it's going to flash, so I have to make noises and act crazy to get her to be wide eyed. I have them model for my website and hopefully, tomorrow, we'll be having a photo session with new dresses. Wish me luck! LOL

Here's one of my favorites of Maddie and Libby...

OMG your girls are beautiful!! I love their pretty matching dresses!

Now Yorkie Yummies just might work for me - they are the all time favorite for my kiddos. I'm going to give those a try. Thanks!!

I think I just need to practice, too! I had planned to this weekend but then the weather turned all miserable and rainy so we were confined inside. The kiddos were so hyper that every time I tried to get on the same level I was attacked by little pink tongues and waggin tails from all directions!!

Finally, I just gave up on the camera and rolled around on the floor with my monsters! We had a blast (and I'm glad there are NO pictures of that)!!

That's funny...I tried "practicing" this weekend...got some great pictures of Winston butt!

You need:

-A Yorkie

-A LOT of patience.

-To take many,many pictures to be sure you get 1 good one.

-To train your puppy sit and stay will really help.

-A squeaky toy so they will look at you.

Awww, you have some really cute pics! Treats are a great idea for my guys - they LOVE their treats. Thank you!

It becomes my newest screensaver.
