This image from a recent shoot to update Dr. Brandon’s website reminded me of the eTrade commercials with the talking babies. I wish I had Dr. Brandon when I was younger. His philosophy is to create a non-threatening environment for both parents and kids. My pediatric dentist drilled without novocaine and watched sports on TV...

Love the Curls!
I love this image for so many reasons.
From the technical aspect, the “halo” effect comes from the subject being “back lit.” This means the strongest source of light (in this case the sun) is behind the subject.
In this “back lit” situation if you let your programmable camera select the settings for your exposure, most likely...

For those of you needing a break from all the online shopping you are doing…what can be cuter than a baby’s bottom, toes and itty bitty fingers! Enjoy…now get back to stimulating the economy!

Hearing about all the turmoil in the world on the Nightly News...
Window Lighting
Whenever possible, my lighting choice is ambient light. Windows are a great source. When using digital capture, I meter my exposure on the lighted area – not the shadows. The larger the difference in f-stops between the light and shadow areas will produce a dramatic lighting effect. Jackson is fascinated with watching birds. I...
Andy @ 4
Collages are one of my favorite items to design. It is such a fun product to depict a short story in a single format. I’ve been photographing Andy once a year since he was just over a year old. It is heartwarming to see his little personality grow and grow over the years.
