be bold. be emotional.

Lately I am really loving photography with bright, bold colors.

I think the bright green in these photos of my cousin and her son is so fun!

I just love the pop of red & blue in these photos of little ‘A’ and his basketball…

Just as soon as I think I’m convinced that bold colors are the only way to go, I find an image that needs to be black & white.  I love black & white for highlighting the relationship & emotions between my subjects.

For example, these shots of my other cousin and his son:

Here’s baby ‘Z’ with his dad…

and the cute little family…

So…leave me a comment and let me know which look you like better.  Bold & fun?  Or B&W & emotional?

the weekend of the baby.

So….does anyone have any ideas about what happens when you ask every new parent you know (and some you don’t) if they’ll let you photograph their new little one? It is possible that you could end up photographing 5 new babies in the stretch of 4 days.

It seems that this weekend ended up being the best time for several baby shoots, for various reasons. Here’s the schedule:

Yesterday: 10 day old baby ‘E’
Today: 2 day old baby ‘N’
Tomorrow: my 2 baby cousins: ‘E’ and ‘Z’
Monday: 1 month old baby ‘R’

I’ll be sharing pictures from each of these sessions later this weekend, but for now, here’s a sneak peak at little Miss ‘E’.
