Photoshoot: Zane and Rhiannon
Zane and Rhiannon…a fun shoot out at one of my favorite places in the world, Joe’s Farm Grill. It’s tough to not want to use this place for every photoshoot I do, but it’s so beautiful. The old buildings, that wagon, the St. Augustine grass, the grape vine archway…I’m in love with it. Thanks to these two kids and daddy Nate for letting me capture a few memories for you guys and hopefully mommy loves her birthday present! The slideshow is just a few of my favorites from the shoot, ended up with a ton to choose from!
Another sneak peak at Zane and Rhiannon
I’m still editing the photos from the little shoot we did Monday night, but I can’t get far before the desire to post a few of them gets the better of me. Both of these kids were too cute for words and an absolute blast to work with. In the shot above, you can see it’s a black and white except for the eyes. That’s not fake color there, I just allowed the blue from the color version of this photo to remain while the rest went B&W. Such amazingly blue eyes! And how cute is Rhiannon? She loves getting [...]
Sneak Peak: Zane and Rhiannon
Meet five month old Zane and his big sister Rhiannon. I met both of these adorable kiddies down at Joe’s Farm Grill along with their father, who was looking to get some photos done in time for his wife’s upcoming birthday. Great pleasure meeting all three of them and we had a lot of fun. Both kids were troopers, as doing any kind of photoshoot in the Arizona summer is brutal, even if it’s late in the evening. They made it just over 45 minutes and by that time we’d gotten what we wanted anyways. Zane has the craziest blue [...]
Photoshoot: Wyatt and Rachel
These are some of my favorite shots from a little photoshoot I did with Wyatt and Rachel on Tuesday night. The little guy was just four days old and the parents wanted some pictures of him, plus a few together with his big sister Rachel for some birth announcements. We got the full spectrum of Wyatt…some super-sleepy to kind of wide-awake…he did such a great job. Of course, when you are that little and the goofy camera guy asks mom and dad to pose you in a certain spot…you are pretty much stuck that way *grin* Although, little Wyatt actually [...]
Beckoning
Kids tend to be shy when they get put into new places, and honestly, don’t we all? After being called over a few times by the kids under the umbrella, this little girl had slowly made her way into the frame of this shot. I love kids, love watching what they do and definitely love capturing it on camera. This shot brings back memories from childhood, where you are constantly wanting to be a part of a group, but sometimes too hesitant, because you aren’t quite sure why they want you to join. Of course, these little guys are just [...]
Hesitation
Kids are fun to watch play together. My wife heard that toddlers play and act like adults without any censorship. For example, the kid at the mall yesterday that snarled at my 17-month old daughter like he was a lion on the prowl in Africa. You don’t see adults doing that, but we’d all certainly like to from time to time am I right? The above scene was shot at a local restaurant with some of our friends. Two of the girls are already hard at work tearing grass out of the ground, while the third stands and contemplates joining [...]
