The Shoes...

... make the woman.

... have trouble walking.

Edsel

I swear, I don't even really like cars. But they don't move, so they're perfect for photographs. And this one was really cool.

Tip: I used f/22 to get the highlights on the chrome to turn into those little star things. You can try it too!

Truman - Part III

Last photo of Truman. I really like this one because it tells the story of the shoot. Truman, while adorable and generally very cooperative, just didn't want to wake up at all. He didn't see the need. Clearly, it was nap time, and what was this lady with the big black thing in his face doing? We tried everything: changing him, moving him, talking to him, feeding him... He woke up briefly for food, but even then his eyes stayed shut. He knew what he wanted, and it was a little shut-eye, thankyouverymuch.

Anyway, just seconds before this photo he opened his eyes a crack. And then decided it was all simply too exhausting, and closed them back up again.

In other news, I am going to New York this week for 6 weeks (for work, not for fun, although I'll try to have some of that as well). This all came up rather last minute, so I apologize for neglecting the blog of late. I will try to be better, and show you some of the Big Apple daily. I leave on Thursday, so wish me luck!

And, just out of curiosity, which is your favorite photo of Mr T? I confess to liking the second one the best, but I'd be eager to hear your opinions on all of that as well.

Truman

Such a great name! One he can definitely grow into.

As this was my first time shooting a baby (with a camera! only), I certainly made my fair share of mistakes. Fortunately, the whole family was so photogenic that I walked away with quite a few keepers nonetheless. And the parents are wonderful. Completely fun to hang out with, and surprisingly rational after 9 days of every 2-hour feedings. I seriously doubt I'd be so laid back after that much sleep deprivation.

Little guy, the world is your oyster. Live it up! One bottle at a time.

Something is Afoot

So, you may be able to guess what the super exciting shoot was that I had yesterday... Let's just say, it'll be a while until this little man's feet are in need of some Converse or Air Jordan's. And anyway, it'd be a shame to cover up this much cuteness!

Fruit Pie!

Just a grab shot from the other night, no high art happening here. But it was delicious...

Oh, and be sure to check in tomorrow, I took some very special photos this weekend.
