2/25/2010 -Catch lights

Busy day!  It is almost 10:00 and the oldest and I are getting home from Cinderella practice.  Made her lie on the floor really quick to take my 365 shot.

Welcome to the world Baby H!

Is this the sweetest little guy?  He was all of 5 days old.  I actually used my little space heater and we (the adults) were cooking but baby H just slept like a champ.  He actually slept a little too well, as it would have been nice to get a couple with his little eyes open.  I still kind of struggle with a touch of performance anxiety where I tend to forget all of the ideas I wanted to try.

2/24/2010 Catch lights

I decided I needed to start trying to replicate some of the light setups I learned at my workshop last month.  This one is called clamshell lighting.  It provides a nicely lit face but I am not overly crazy about the catch lights.  This is my not so little girl!

2/23/10 Catch Lights

I was so hoping to get some great catch lights with the newborn pictures I took today, but he was such a great sleeper that he never opened his eyes.  This is the uncooperative little girl who is getting closer and closer to being 2 (in every sense of the word) each day.

Little Man!

Check out this adorable little man!  He was so perfect!  He slept so well we missed out on getting any shots with his eyes open.  As always, as I am going through the pictures I am wishing that I would have done more and different things with him.  This is just a teaser though.  My pregnant belly (and back) is not going to let me sit at the computer for much longer.  Watch for more in the next couple of days!

2/19/10 Redone!

I had to try the coffee (tea) splash picture again!  My 13 year old was eager to help me.  I am not sure if it was the ability to eat the soggy cookies or just the fun in making such a mess that enticed her.  We had a little better results with the natural light coming through the window.

2/22/10 Catch Lights

This one isn't overly creative or inspiring, but it allowed me to check something off my to do list.  I lugged the camera up to the park for our little picnic lunch only to realize that I hadn't stuck the memory card back in.
