Hi Cindy,

I prefer the first pose much more than the 2nd for two reasons: 1) the directional lighting brings out their features much more 2) The composition. I feel that the first photo has sort of captured them in the "moment". It seems that you have approached them reading a book together and you have captured their initial reaction.It tells a story about siblings and feels very natural to me. The 2nd is more of a "Come on kids, let's gather for a camera shot" and seems more "rehearsed."

Good Luck! This one should be fun for you!
