I don't photograph newborns very often, but the quietness and simplicity of life during the first few weeks is something I've grown to miss. My youngest is three years old and its anything but quiet and simple. I've already forgotten what its like to hold and experience life in its infancy. Hope you enjoy this handful of newborn goodness, all captured on film in various formats. Congrats Sarah & Grant!
I usually don't get photos of me working, but after a recent shoot for Tara LaTour, one of her assistants texted me these sweet bts pics and I'm so thankful! Thought I'd show you a side by side of me shooting and the resulting images. One thought I had while looking through these (more bts images to come!)...There's nothing magical about whats going on, necessarily. It's more about how the photographer is seeing light, shape & form and how to capture that. Our eyes are amazingly complex, but film doesn't behave the same way. Thinking the way your film or camera thinks and how they will react to the light is more the excitement and challenge. Thanks for sticking with me all these years. 2016 has proven to be as crazy as I thought, but its been amazing. I haven't had time to blog much, but I know it'll slow down eventually and I'll have no excuse!
Ryan & Shelby contacted me last year about wanting a session with another couple. Turns out the other couple was Ryan's brother, Scott and sister-in-law, Stacey. They are moving to TX this Summer, so my time with these four was centered around a few places they love to go together. I also tried something new, and gave these guys a compact film camera and asked that they take photos of each other during our time together. After they finished the roll, I ran the roll through the same camera again, taking my own photos. The roll of film is double exposed. The results were great and I think they had a lot of fun with it. Thanks so much for checking out the blog and following along. Its going to be a busy year, so keep checking back or subscribe so you don't miss anything! If you want me to come hang out with you and yours, contact me soon so I can get you on my calendar!! Thanks everyone.
