Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot

It wouldn't be Christmas morning without some snapshots of everyone looking sleepy and rumpled, dressed in their pajamas and sitting amidst the remains of brightly colored paper and bows (allow me to coin a new word here, wrapping paper shrapnel, henceforth known as wrapnel).

Part of these pictures' charm is their simplicity and spontaneity, but if you're looking to improve your photography skills for let's say, oh, the other 364 days of the year, check out this excellent article on Simple Mom, on "Five Simple Techniques for Enhancing Your Images With Children."

Read it. Learn it. Shoot away! And then learn some editing tricks for taking care of those pesky under-eye circles we moms know far too well.
