I took portraits for the Barnsdall Elementary Cheerleading squads last week. It wasn’t a newspaper assignment. The squad wanted individual photos and team photos to buy prints. I don’t care for smiling posed photos for my photojournalism work, but when it comes family portrait like shoots I usually get a few laughs and smiles out of everyone. This little girl was not having any of that. I stopped trying to reason with her and just let her be mad, shooting this photo the moment she glared at me, signalling she was clearly done. It might not be her family’s favorite, but it’s definitely mine.
