3 Commissions - Children Need help

Hello everyone,

I hope I am in the right area for this. Anyway, I have 2 little girls ages 5 & 4 and a little fella age 1.

Client doesn't have any photos and is looking to me for take the pictures, and I am having to do it on location which is there home. So, right off I am at a disadvantage I think as I am unaware of the surroundings for lighting consideration.

When I have models in my studio I use my Canon Rebel T3 and with clamp window lighting and reflectors I get some really decent shots.

I am really concerned about how to go about shooting the 1 year old, I mean can I really expect him to hold a pose ... need help!!!

The two girls love to pose as can be seen by a pencil sketch I did of one of them here on my site ... http://mbstudiosart.wordpress.com/

Should I take them outside? or remain indoors? Client is leaving this up to me.

I am nervous on this one, so any suggestions .. inspiration is much appreciated.

Each child on their own canvas, this is not a group shot nor does the client want one.
