Studio strobes, camera set on 1/125th of second at F/8. Dodged the background to get a highkey effect and added border and text in PS7

This so great, Lisa! Too cute for words and excellent job with the comp and lighting!! #197960Lisa Deaton December 20, 2004
Thanks Janet. These guys are 5 and under so challenging to say the least to get everyone to look at the camera at the same time! Ha Ha :) They did a good job though #988628Karma Wilson December 28, 2004
Well, they were REALLY good for the photo shoot. Love the expression on the middle child. Reminds me of baby days gone by! Sniff...sniff...Karma #999718

Congrats on this great image Lisa!! I have been missing out on all the great entries because of internet problems, but I am all fixed now!! This is soooo cute! I love how they are in their PJ's!!!! #1080198Lisa Deaton February 02, 2005
Mom brought the PJ's and was a little reluctant to ask cause she wasn't sure if I would think it was corny. Obviously I said let's do it!! Anything for a cute photo op!! Hope your computer problems are resolved. :) #1080246Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
