My First Ever Model

Last March 27 of 2013 my family together with my parents spent the Holy Week in Lingayen, Pangasinan.  I’m just so glad that my cousin agreed that I take some photos of her 1-year old baby girl Gaile.  We decided to have it in the park (Lingayen Capitol Park) right in front of my cousin’s home.  We had it at around 4:30 pm where the sun is not too bright and not too hot because I prefer the natural light.  One good thing is that Gaile just woke up from her siesta as she traveled from another town (Dagupan) to Lingayen.  All I could say is that this little girl is so adorable!  I didn’t have a hard time taking photos of her. She smiles a lot as if she knows what’s going on.

Gaile’s also super sweet.  When we’re done I felt lucky to take a shot of Gaile hugging and kissing my cousin.  

I also got a chance to take some photos of one of my nephews, Gaile’s first cousin, Jake.  I just caught him enjoying the afternoon with Gaile and Lucas as they lay down on the picnic mat.  I truly enjoyed that afternoon so I told myself this is just the first.  I’m hoping that I’ll have more opportunities like this.  As a preschool teacher, I work closely with children all the time so I’d say I gained patience and I sort of have some techniques on how I could encourage them to give the smile I’m looking for.

Actually, two days after, I had another photo session with my other cousin’s kids.  I’ll be posting those photos too as soon as I’m done :).  I hope you enjoyed looking at Gaile’s photos.
