Maternity: Baby Blocks

Amazed Little Girl

First time this year my daughter has been outside to play.
She is amused but the little rocks, birds and sky.
She is not, however, a big fan of the grass.


Waiting For Spring

I can’t remember if this was a fall or spring photo but it makes me excited for spring.
Already the temperature is getting nice but the grass is not quite green.
It won’t be long.


Maternity: The Second Time (part 1)

Maternity photo shoot with my wife for our second pregnancy. This is the first photo shoot which we to look a little more formal.


Deep Thought

Early morning in deep thought at the breakfast table.


Stealing Popcorn

Here is a shot I had to take. Grandpa letting his granddaughter steal some food (popcorn, candy…not to sure). It is fun to watch children grow up and learn about family, who their grandparents, uncles, aunts and cousins are. Sometimes the perfect photo is not about the right lighting, background or composition, it is about capturing a moment of life.


Happy Girl

It doesn’t matter how many teeth you have as long as you got a smile!


Fisherman

Here is a friend I went ice fishing with. Here he is giving me a tour of the fishing hut he built. A wooden box on skies with a tarp for a roof and side walls. Inside is room for to store your fishing gear and big enough for two people.


The Two Of Us

Here is a little portrait I did of me and my daughter. It is a little hard to get one of us (my wife or I) with her for a good shot as she is always moving around. The only time she looks at the camera is if is is trying to play with it and although she is a very happy girl, she usual looks quite serious for planned photos.

Here she laid still with me long enough for me to fire off a couple of shots. It was hard as I was using a 50mm lens and had to snap the shot with out a timer or looking through the viewer. Too add to it there was little light. However, as  a small image, I think it turned out alright.


Hay Is For Kids

davidsonA rainy day at Davidson Orchard meant running from buildings to trees to little shelters. It was a fun trip and this photo was taken under a sitting area where people wait for a tractor ride out to a pumpkin patch. This day there was no tractor rides just lots of people with unbrella’s.
