I was trying to submit a picture of DD to a contest and I'm shocked and a little upset w/ myself at how few pictures I have of her looking AT the camera (most of them are blurry or from far away). Once she learned to walk, that was it, I guess...
Any suggestions on how to get more shots of a very active toddler?

The only way I can get either of my kids to look straight into the camera is to use my iphone. And use the reverse camera feature so that your LO can see him/herself on the phone. Works every time Those are some of my faves because they're usually smiling too.

Yes.... but lately if she sees me taking a picture she wants to look at the back of the camera to see the pictures instead of be in the picture. Her nanny taught her that 
Sometimes she will let me though.... my advice is to just keep taking pictures. If you take 30 pictures you'll probably get 1 good one

I usually hold something above the lens to catch her attention. Either that or flip the display around on my t3i so she can see it.
