Loving Miss A

I hadn’t planned on putting anymore photos of the gorgeous Miss A up, but while I was processing the last of the images I came across a couple that I couldn’t resist.

More of Miss A

I have been working through my images of little A. Here are a few more.

Nothing like a sleeping baby face. Boy are they hard to pose without waking them though. I am going to have to get better at that!

Meeting Miss A

Not long ago I photographed my first maternity session for friends of mine. Not long after (about a week) Miss A was born. I had the opportunity to meet her today and photograph her and her family on the outside.

Here are a few of the first photos.

I’m looking forward to getting to have a look at the rest!

New Skills, a New Blog Name and a New Facebook Page

You are still in the right place! I have been rethinking my blog. It seems to be predominately about photography now as I become more obsessed at getting better at this. So I have renamed my blog to suit and given it a facelift. I have also decided to start a facebook page to relieve my personal facebook friends from having to see the many photos I post on facebook!

Portraits of a blanket

Waking up takes a while.

Practice, Practice, Practice

 

How is this layers? Editing. Think photoshop. They don’t come out of the camera looking quite like this.

I took these because I lost my mojo. Do you ever have periods where you think you’ve lost your photography mojo? I am obsessed with focus. I have been taking lots of indoor photos with not enough light and no good flash. It has been getting me down. I found a lot of photos that were rubbish. I have finally had an opportunity to get outside and take a few photos and experiment with window light. Unfortunately taking photos of a 4 year old is HARD. The sideways head was the best I could do. Hmmm…
