I hauled out a bunch of lighting equipment and set it up at my friends' cottage, and grabbed some pictures of their kids.
My little buddy here, 7 years old, promised me he'll kill me with his awesome homemade ninja sword skills.
His little sister, age 4, strikes a couple of nice poses before she runs away:

Portraiture and Lighting Experiments up at the Cottage
My friend was very kind and co-operative to model for me while I experimented with a bunch of lighting setups up at the cottage.

Both these photos are entirely artificially-lit (obviously excepting the view outside the window in the first shot). I think this was a successful experiment in artificial lighting, and both look very credible as natural light.
These shots are variations on a similar lighting setup with an octabox camera left with another strobe for mild fill:
As I packed up my gear, this nice shot came into view:
