Darth Dare challenge: School photos

[QNPoohBear]

We have decided to accept Ria's dare and my three historicals who live in the age of photography agreed to sit for school photos. For Addy the process was a bit tiring, but she loves school and is excited to have so many school supplies available to her. Samantha sat through her portrait easily but she couldn't wait to be done and read her book. Molly was a bit figedty and I swear I saw her cross her eyes and stick out her tongue [img]wink.gif[/img]

Those are so cute!! I love how you tinted them to fit the time period. I have most of mine taken, but I have to upload them.

Well done Robin.

Very lovely, Robin. You're such a purist, though! Kaya, Felicity, and Kirsten deserve school pictures, too...I mean, you take pictures of them all of the time. And what of Miss Susanna? She too good to get her picture taken? Homeschoolers have pictures done, too.

Great pictures! Loved the tonal differences. Thanks for the pictures. [img]graemlins/star.gif[/img]
