Love the pictures of your boys. Hearing about Cooper's shenannigans makes me laugh. Love the pic with Max (the head shot with his nose out front), I love kissing their noses!!

Enjoy them, they are precious!!

Looks like they are settling in together well. And Cooper looks like he's doing exactly what a big brother should...tormenting the younger sibling

Tinksmygirl · 08-21-2010, 07:23 PM

Precious photos! They are both adorable.

Thanks everyone!

Love your boys. I would kiss Max for hours!

You are right, I think Piper and Cooper could have been twins!

Just wait until Piper gets bigger. There coloring is totally different but the hair and faces are so similar.

Those are great, both adorable as can be! Love the close up of Max & the bully stick photo, hilarious!

We have a leather couch very similar to yours with the nailheads, but ours is dark brown, we love it!

So cute. Typical big brother, wanting to tease and torment the younger one.

I was going to ask what kind of camera you used because your photographs are gorgeous. Surprised it isn't fast enough to capture action. A good camera is on my list of needs.

It's a Sony Cybershot and it's awful. The pictures are somewhat clear on stills, but once you hit the snap button, you literally have to wait about 2 seconds for it to take a photo.

With a point and shoot camera, there is always shutter lag. To minimize it, you can try prefocusing on what you want to take a picture of. If they are doing something cute, just press the shutter button half way. Your camera will try to gain focus, and when the right minute comes along, take the picture. It won't work for action shots, and shutter lag is probably the most frustrating thing about point and shoot cameras. They're great because of their size because you can have it with you at all times if you want, but they're not great at capturing action shots. They really are too difficult to use with animals and kids because they're always moving around so much. You can just try taking more than you need and hope that some will turn out right. I still use my camera more like a film camera, where I plan out each shot. I couldn't do that with my babies, so I tried to anticipate their action. I use a D-SLR almost exclusively, but I still think the portability of a point and shoot is really appealing also.

For some really great inspiration, this is a thread of dog photos from the only other forum that I read. It's the Nikon section of a photography forum fredmiranda.com and people posted pictures that they took of dogs. They are very serious amateurs and some professionals, and they are amazing photos. If you love seeing pictures of dogs, you will enjoy this, and it might give you ideas for pictures of your little ones. The other one is just a link of photography tips from Nikon about how to get your dogs or cats to sit still and look at you when you are taking the pictures. I love the candids that you are getting of them; it shows their personality and they are so adorable, but I definitely understand the frustration of getting so many back of the head pictures.
