I took this photo yesterday on a break from trick or treating for Halloween. My four year old daughter Anna was "Cinderalla Bride" and she obviously chose her own footwear, LOL!!

I have posted the original as a workshop per Nejat's request. If anyone cares to do a workshop, I had thought of desaturating everything except the lollipops but I forgot how to do it!

I desaturated the photo to give it an old fashioned look since the kids were in black and white anyway.

Alli,
This may very well be my favorite halloween phto from this year. I love the looks on their faces and I cannot believe how much they look like their mom. (from what I've seen of you)
Thanks for sharing this one....it's beautiful and it leaves a smile on my face.

Great picture! You really captured their personalities; I know how difficult it is to get the little ones to sit still for a picture. Nicely done.

Love the expression here. Very happy and natural. I love her little boots too. I like the B&W - looks very classy.

HI ALLI.
INDEED A VERY FUNNY PICTURE. THE COMPOSITION IS SO WELL THOUGHT. THE CONTRAST BETWEEN B&W IS WONDERFUL, VERY INTERESTING.
CONGRATULATIONS.
Luci

Hi Alli
Nice picture beautiful expressions, i like the use of B&W, its a shame the dress doesnt have more creases to stop it lookong flat

Well Done
Gideon

Did Cinderalla have a Bride? I though she was more into men!!! LOL

I haven't seen the original yet but will commit to doing a workshop regardless. Hmmm... interesting challenge anyway... let's see shall we

Alli, your daughters are adorable, ...as well as their parents are nice! This is a beautiful B&W photo with great expressions on their faces. Yeah, colorful lollipops would benefit, what a pity I still don't know how to do this and cannot advise... Maybe Elina knows?.. I'll ask her, she is my consultant now, can you imagine?, and just a few years ago it used to be quite the opposite...

A beautiful amount of happiness ...
Nice portrait !!!
Antonio

Great capture here Alli! A priceless and comical moment!! The b&w is a very good choice for lots of reasons.

Their expressions are beautiful and the Bride's little boots are just adorable! She did a perfect job in choosing, I think those are the ones I would have picked too!! They say so much about her as a newly forming "individual"!

Beautiful Alli, really!
Peace,
Cat

Beautiful, a beautiful picture
she seems a time picture.
Great shot Alli.
I am happy for you

Fun picture. Great title. Nice setting. I love the black and white. Thanks for sharing Alli.

alli,
they're very lovely and enjoying themselves.funny compo,might be better with colored version,why not sending that as a ws.
regards

how totally cool and adorable Alli! well.. looks like Anna is already asserting her right as a woman not to have to wear crippling uncomfortable heels! ihih and she's doing it in great funky style too... 'you go girl' as they say :-)

really lovely shot and great halloween costumes.. oh i missed dressing up this year... last year was such fun as the queen of the night ^_^

excellent job and take care,
Ayda

Hello Alli !

Your girls are just adorable ! Keep on the good work with your sweet models.
Beautiful B&W photo. Perhaps the constrasts of Annie's dress could be increased a bit.

I posted a different WS.

Hope you will like it !
Cheers!

I love this shot. Well done. Great candid photo you'll cherish forever. Your kids are adorable! I did a workshop to make it old fashioned too but with a sepia tone.
Be well,
d

Ali, great shot.I congratulate.
