It is ok to have those awkward closed mouth smiles if she wants some... BUT it is up to us to bring out her true spirit and get her laughing and smiling (with teeth). Her parents will love them even more and she won't look back at these years later and wonder why there are no smiling shots.

Honestly, I am not at all sold on this idea. Some kids have toothy grins and others don't. I want them to be comfortable and if they hate a toothy grin, then they will not purchase shots with them. I don't find smiles (without teeth) awkward at all. She was very relaxed (my daughter; used to sessions with me/modeling. Me, as mom, am not missing the teeth for a session like this.) Definitely, getting them to relax is my goal.

First of all, a beautiful young lady and I'll go with the majority and pick #1 for the cover page pose and oozing personality. I could like it better without the branches but an excellent shot regardless... Mike
Thanks! I get a lot of positive responses to that one.
