Is it possible that her smile was spontaneous and not entirely posed (even though she knew she was photographed)? Loved it, by the way. Bulent - http://www.flickr.com/photos/bc_the_path/ http://photo.net/photodb/user?user_id=22268

It was completely spontaneous, Bulent. I try to be prepared for anything interesting that happens in a photo session. Going into it, I have a few ideas I want to try but they are only sketches. In this one, as we often do, my wife was assisting. Part of her job is to engage the subject/model
