It's instinct, right?
You booked a fall photo session with the fam, the pumpkins are right there, and you'd like one picture where she's looking up.
So the minute she picks up that wooly worm, it just comes tripping off your tongue. Put that thing DOWN!
But what if ... you didn't?
A kid holding a wooly worm will stand stiller than any kid I have ever asked to stand still. (I have asked a lot of kids over the years.)
This little girl completely forgot I was there. The lady with the camera was gone. It was just her and her new friend. When she was done, she set him on a rock and crouched down to watch him go.
They won't always stop for wooly worms.
The photos let you hold on to when they did.
