I love this expression....

On one hand she looks highly amused, probably because you were likely on your knees in front of her... but there's nothing to really peg amusement... even the "smile" isn't quite a smile..like a half smirk, which could be a result of the hand...

BUT

Cover up the mouth region, and it looks like she's pondering disemboweling you or something.

LOL. I was actually just standing further down the stairs, they have this crazy little hill of a front yard. I can't remember what I said at that point... I make people laugh when taking pictures, to help them relax. At one point I said something like: "Don't take this the wrong way but spread your legs and lean forward." It was because her stance was too ruler like, with her legs straight and close together. The same position that chorus teachers warn against because if you stay that way for to long you can faint. But, yeah we cracked up laughing for like five minutes. Then a little bit after that I reminded Hannah, to have expression because a lot times when taking pictures of people I've noticed that their concentrating so hard on their stance that their faces are blank. So she changed it up, and I made a weird face back at her and she laughed and said "By the look on your face I guess I need to work on my come hither expression." To which I said, "That's what that was?" and then Jonathan walked by and Hannah said something about being lucky to have him. Photo shoots are so much fun. It's a little weird, but a lot of fun and I'm getting better at people pictures.

A tactic that I've used with great success (including a job at CostCo*) was to berate the person, catch them off guard.

"Smile!"
*glares*
"Okay then, put on your best scowl!"
*glares*
"That's your best? Alllright." [click]

About 95% of 'em, random strangers, I could at least get grinning, among friends it words VERY well.
"Okay, look this way, annnnd SCOWL!" If you get a photo of scowls, all the better! More smiles later.


"Don't take this the wrong way but spread your legs and lean forward."

Yeah... I would've guessed a guy went for those shots.

*CostCo, if you haven't ventured afield is very much like a Sam's Club, direct competitor actually.

I has death in my eyes lol.
My eyes do weird things. Usually because they're in the middle of a blink. And Linz is usually making me laugh so I clench my teeth to not laugh and get these weird tension lines around my mouth D:

Yeah, I don't think I've actually seen you smile before, always more of a smirk.

Why not laugh?

Because my teeth show up very yellow due to staining and a weird enamel issue that causes them to actually be a greyish color with flecks of white in them. That and thanks to the cost of braces and God's sense of humor my front teeth on the bottom and top of my mouth are slowly trying to turn and face each other so they dip inward . . .
I really ought to get that fixed.
