Photo Shoot Chaos

October 1, 2019 By Laura

Just a light behind the scenes story today. My latest book, Snack, Snooze, Skedaddle, is dedicated to my five great nephews and nieces in the Atlanta area. My husband, Randy, recently visited family down there, and he hand-delivered copies to each child. Then, because he is awesome, he took photos! I loved them and I shared a couple of graphics on social media:

 

Two of the awesome kids I dedicated SNACK, SNOOZE, SKEDADDLE to.

They are so cute!

And then Randy showed me the out-takes, and our niece Amanda showed us a photo she took of Randy trying to wrangle five kids at a huge family get-together of about 30 people! (That one’s my favorite.)

Laura owes me, big time.
Is lunch ready yet?
Well. This is going great.

No, I’M gonna be in front!
And that’s a wrap.

Hahahahaha! I really should give Randy some kind of public relations hazard pay!
