Why I'm not a photographer

Have you ever tried to take a portrait of a newborn?  I've been trying for days with no success.  Here's what we've got so far:


Hey!  What's that over there?

Are you sure you know what you're doing?

If you haven't noticed, I'm not enjoying myself

Maybe if I channel Popeye

Or I could act surprised

  2. Actually you are doing pretty damn good and I am impressed. Trust me; I worked for Kiddie Kandids & JayLynn KidZ for years. Yes newborns are hard to photograph but you have several fabulous shots. The hardest thing is to get them to even have their eyes open and not crying. Don’t be so critical of yourself! You are AWESOME and very talented!

  4. I love the angry one. It just makes me so happy to see him lifting his bobble head etc. What a cutie he already is starting to show characteristics of being his own little person. His eyes look darker than Alex's were I wonder if they will be a deeper blue.
    Me being able to see all of this in these pictures definitely means you are taking great photos.

  5. Your pictures are so cute. The ones on flickr with Max and Alex are some of the cutests pictures I have ever seen!
