Thanks for all the comments.
billsol-Thanks for your comments, no offense taken. In my experience I have found that when taking pictures of small children the parents typically want to capture them in their element. I think almost every shoot I have done with small children the parents favorite photos are ones where the kid isn't looking at the camera. I have sold several large prints like this. In the family session above they purchased a 16x20 of just their children on the train tracks holding hands (you only see their backs). I try to give a family a variety of shots to choose from, the typical portraits and something a little more artistic!
paulhodson: Thanks for your comments as well, no offense taken. They may become unfashionable down the road just like anything else, but I do believe that what you can do with PP will only become more popular over time. Bottom line is there are your everday photographers that capture the same shots with not a lot of PP and then there are photographers that add an artisitc touch. If a family likes what I do they will hire me because I am different than others and if not they will choose another photographer. It is an art!
RianFlynn and bigbee- I agree that train trracks are probably overused but we did do a couple shots there since we they were close to where we were shooting. The family liked it so in the end I'm glad we did a few shots there!
