:: Proofing Frenzy - Take 7 ::

It was a dark and rainy afternoon when I did this session. The light was going away fast on me (even though the session started early in the afternoon) so I had to crank up the ISO on my camera in order to have a good shutter speed. Some photos are granier than I normally do but I love the effect. It reminds me of film photos (my very first passion). See, fast shutter speed is very important when you take fast moving babies. They will not stay still! Just like my previous set of twins, the minute we would put them next to each other they will run in opposite directions. They sure help me burn some calories lol!

This is the third time photographing these adorable twin boys. I did their newborn photos, 7 month old & now almost a year old. I'm sure you've seen them before. Just take a peak at my galleries and they're all over the place :o)

P.S. I think I'm one of the photographers with the most twin's sessions out there! I have another photoshoot coming up in the next week for 2 year old twin girls. I just love them!

I enhanced the grain on this one. I'm really diggin this effect!

See what I mean on moving in opposite directions? this is just one example :o)

Sometimes I have a session where the baby or child is not a super smiley one to strangers (a.k.a: me) and I'm totally fine with that. I love the moody, serious, curious looks of our little ones. After all, babies and children are not going around with a permanent smile on their face! I think it's important to capture the other side of them as well.

She looks like a porcelain doll!

But then I got the following shot and how can I not melt with a smile like this?

Eventually they all warm up to me...

I love the lighting on this shot! I just knew this was THE family shot as soon as I clicked the shutter. It was just the perfect family moment.

Hello again! Meet these wonderful, very active, super fast twins. Boy, I had to chase them around for almost every shot I took! They were super fast at crawling (I don't think I could crawl that fast if I wanted to). I still managed to get some great shots (or so I think). They were so much fun!

Okay, I admit that I'm a few days behind on proofing some sessions but it's not because I haven't been working...I just had to get caught up on Christmas cards and some pending orders I had to place. I should be right on track by tomorrow since I'll be home all day due to the rain. I had scheduled my day of Mini Sessions for Saturday but they had to be moved to Sunday!!! Well, due to the high demand of the Mini Sessions we had to open Sunday (prior of knowing it was going to rain on Saturday)...so now I have the Mini Sessions from Saturday and Sunday on one day!! I'm sure I'll manage but I think I will need a drink of wine when I'm done :o) Can't wait to show you those images!

I just love so many photos from this session (I know I say that all the time but it's the truth!). It was hard to decide which ones to show you. This is a SUPER cool family that were gifted with good genes. Just look at those precious children! I experimented with different finishes on some of the images from this session and I think I like the results. What do you think?

What do you do when everyone in the family looks like a model? Photograph them just like one!

Does it look like me?

:: Proofing Frenzy - Take 2 ::

Meet one of favorite babies of 2007! I can't believe he's already 4 months old. The last time I photographed him he was just a few days old. In fact, he's the baby on my opening slideshow on my website... that's one of my ultimately favorite newborn shots ever! I will be watching him grow as he's the last client in 2007 for my baby collection of 4 sessions in 18 months. Can't wait to photograph him again when he's sitting up.

Just look at those eyes!

When I was contacted to photograph 4 little boys under the age of 10 I thought I was going to have my hands full during their session. Let me tell you....they were some of the easiest boys to photograph! I just loved how all of them were very different from each other. The little one cracked me up since he was ready to be center stage even when it wasn't his turn :o)

He was so cute when he came out with his camera and started taking my photo while I photographed his little brother. I think he was taking my photos as a payback for me taking his. So adorable!
