They say, "you mean it's just sounds?" thinking that for something to just be a sound is to be useless, whereas I love sounds just as they are, and I have no need for them to be anything more than what they are.

I've never shot portraits in any professional capacity, or really much at all before. I don't get much practice, but I had a friend visiting this week so we had some fun. This was lit using a single speedlight and the basic 45°/45° set up. Shame about the shadow on the back wall, but the room we were in was rather small.

I really like the first one. I know nothing about lights, what's the standard 45/45 setup?

Yeah, this was just a spur of the moment picture of a friend in my living room, so a hair stylist would be a little over the top. Guess I'll just practice with clone/healing :)

Yeah, the light in and around the barn was just fantastic. Lateish afternoon sun was behind the barn she's leaning against, and there was an overhang above her giving good shade so that the direction was diffuse coming in.

Not often I get to be in front of the camera, and even less frequent that there are lights involved. Visiting photographer friend wanted to photograph us, and we took this in our greenhouse. Designed to show the cluttered life we are living as new parents, as well as my husband's love of gardening. Fuji X100 and a Softlighter just outside the greenhouse to camera left at about 2.5 meter height providing the main light. I did the post work.

Strange, because it's not hard for us to find ourselves kissing his head. It was an impromptu pose in between facing the camera. I like this one a bit more for our heads, but the standing poses aren't as nice.

I mean, it has been keeping us busy, but I've been photographing like hell. Just not much that I will share, cause.. baby photos. :-)


We did some kitchen ones too, to focus on my love of cooking, but I don't think they were nearly as successful.

As a connoisseur of dadpix, this one is the best because the baby is looking at the camera.

The secret to getting the baby to look at the camera is to snap around 200,000 photos and then face swap the one time it looks at the camera.

And you've got about 90 seconds starting from the time they realize pictures are being taken until they run away and cease all cooperation.

I would say 75% of the good pictures I've taken of my kids have been the first or second shot in a given moment or scene.
