"We love characters . . . out going personalities," said Doris Pinney. "And of 'course it helps if the child is pretty." Mrs. Pinney, a handsome blonde of Norwegian ancestry, said she can tell much about the personality of baby by the way mother walks Into the studio with it. If mother slips in meek ly, you can bet the child is the shy type who'll hide his face in his mother's shoulder, she said If mom bounces in, you can bet the offspring will be outgoing too'. Mrs. Pinney, mother of three past the toddler stage, has been "shooting " babies mostly lor commercial photography for 16 years. She's been the victim of Study Old Shoes Advises Expert LINCOLN, Neb. (UPI) - A properly fitted shoe will natur ally support tht three weight bearing points of the foot the ball of the heel, the ball of the great toe and the ball of the little toe. Gerda .Peterson, a clothing specialist at me University or Nebraska, said persons should check their o I d shoes before buying new ones. "They've been through the mill with you," she explained. "Take a good look at how Uiey fared and you will learn what errors to avoid next time you choose a new pair." She said If the sole Is worn unevenly, with more wear In the front, it means the shoe is too short. It the heel pushes under or new lifts are often needed, this also is an indication the shoes were too short, she said. "If shoes are out of shape, this means the size is wrong and the shoos are objecting," Miss Peterson said. "If the shoe is puckered or wrinkled behind the ball along t h e arch, the shoe is not long enough from the ball to the heel. The overall length may be right but the proportion is not."

Short Sessions A camera session with a babv rarely runs longer than an hour, she said, because a tot tires readily from all the attention. "And I never tell the mother io get lost . . . just to get some where out of camera range," she said. If the baby suddenly misses mother, that's the end of that camera session." Mrs. Pinney was born In Brooklyn, the daughter of Arnl and Vera Bartelscn, originally irom Norway. mot father is an engineer-Inventor and holds sev eral citations from the U.S. Navy. Her mother is an artist. and Mrs. Pinney studied at the Pratt Institute, Brooklyn. Doris pinney began taking pic tures of babies because her hus band, Roy, a photographer also, didn't like working with tots, she said. She figures that in the 16 years she's been photographing them, the total now is in the thousands. Her subjects come from mod cling agencies, from friends who spot likely candidates, and from her own scouting. "I'll slop a mother in a supermarket," she said, "and tell her I'd like to photograph her child. And don't pay me. I'll pay you." "Helpful Neighbor "My next door neighbor has 14 children, so there's a good supply of subjects right there," she laughed. The Pinneys, with their three children ages 12, 15 and 16, live at Larchmont, a New York suburb. To parents who want to make albums of their own chiluren, the profcsional photographer of fered these suggestions: Be set up and ready. That is, give the child a placo where he or she is content to be . , .the den, the nursery for instance. Photograph the child when he's there on his own. Keep the back ground simple. Remember to get seasonal settings "a child playing in a pile of leaves this fall, for instance." Get action into the picture If you can. 'I've photographed my own girl shampooing her hair," said Mrs. Pinney. "Not all pic tures arc meant to be hung, you know." Ore,, who accompanied young Rodriguez to the tea.
