OT - Need ideas for kids photos

[monkey30]

The local photographer is having a kids only photo shoot day, and with this comes some nice deals but I am looking for some different ideas to take with the kids in way of props and poses for the kids. i don't want their pics to look like everyone else I want something different.

She is open to whatever I want to do, and we are limited to a hour long session, but is willing to work with us.

Any ideas for what has worked for you in the past? DS's are 7, 4.5 and 5mths!

some of favorite professional shots are of my son, just being my son! I'm tired of the posed look, I like a more natural feeling photo. I've always taken things (props) that my son is interested in. Remember, you don't always have to have them 'look' at the camera for a great picture! Good luck!
