I really think it's funny when I take a picture of someone, and later that someone responds by telling me how vain they feel about the picture. I take this to mean the picture was so freaking awesome that they can't stop looking at it . . . well, I really haven't had that problem myself - looking at myself in pictures.
See, to be honest, I don't like pictures of myself. I try not to step in front of the camera unless one of the models I had scheduled for a shoot is a no show. Then of course I have to be the model. And those poor students.
I'm the worst in front of the camera. I blink a lot, I have my one perfected pose (which screams UNNATURAL), and I have a lot of distracting moles. So shooting me can be difficult.
Today Mark (hubby photog in training) shot me sitting on a park bench with my sweet Ruby. It may be that Ruby brings out the best in me, or I have finally disowned my one perfected pose, but I tend to think Mark's picking up photography like a pro. I love this shot so much.
Like other people I've shot, I now feel vain because I can't stop looking at myself.

Gorgeous picture of your girls, Mark! :)
L O V E IT :)
Well you are gorgeous! You should be in the front of the camera more often!
I love it too! You're just radiant and Ruby is like your mini-gorgeous-twin. Way to go Mark!
That's cuz you are so dang pretty!
And what's this about you not liking to step in front of a camera? Who are you and what did you do with Erin?
beautiful! Great job Mark!
Love that picture! You are a super pretty girl. PS- Kennedy thinks that moles on the face are the definition of beauty. She wants one SO bad.
You should love it! I love almost every picture of myself! (because they are so few & far between--) Mark is getting really good! Do you think he would come take pictures of our baby being born?
Erin you better watch out Mark is some serious competition. You look beautiful.
Tammy, I am totally there for you.
You are not vain just beautiful.
What a beautiful picture! You are gorgeous and so is Ruby. I'd keep staring at it too! ;-)
I would stare at it too....You both look gorgeous!

Everyone deserves a picture of themselves that they love. Glad you have yours. And Ruby is growing up beautifully, too.
