Those are great!!! We had a similar type party for my 8 year old last week at a Club called Libby Lu's. Man there was glitter for days on those girls. My daughter announced she was a drama queen and I let her know she wasn't telling me anything new.

Your daughter looks like quite the "ham" :)

only used the onboard flash, couldnt find my 580Ex. The lens was the 28-135... not an " L ", BUT it did the trick... i was going to use the 16-35 but the girls were all over me asking for pictures.... i didnt trust my 16-35 with all the female giddyness around.. they were asking to use my camera!!! Who could say no....

thanx tim!

it was weird, im really not used to shooting people anymore. but it was a lot of fun. my first 25 shots were all "trash". when i moved into a room with a lot of mirrors. the shots came out much more sharper, detailed, brighter.

You're a brave man Troy :uhoh

My son and I usually found that we had other engagements whenever my daughters would have a party like this....lol All that giggling can be bad for your hearing :lol

J/K, really nice shots :thumb :thumb Man, I could have sworn you were using an external flash. These came out extremely well, IMO, for using the pop up :clap

GREAT EYES :thumb

...you didn't need to identify your daughter! Please don't tell her I said she looks just like her brother. She probably wouldn't like that.:nah

Fantastic shots Troy! I think YOU should consider buying a gun ... at least a big stick!

Troy, congrats on being the father of a 10 year old girl... I have been one myself for 7 days now.

All I can say is you are a brave man. How many girls and how much makeup?

I'm with Nir. Big sticks are OK... Guns make more noise. :lol3 Oh the fun you will have with the boys. If you have any fun ideas, we could swap. I have a few I can't wait to use.

peace.
