James, Winter 2011

Now that my shooting season is approaching, I decided to try something new while trying something new--shooting James, a six-month-old...indoors.  Without my trusty sunlight, I had to resort to a strobe and shoot-through umbrella.  It worked, although I'll be the first to admit I need more practice with studio lighting!  Then there was the matter of getting such a young model to hold still, look at me, and smile.  Fortunately for me, James has great parents who did a fantastic job of coaxing smiles (quack-quack!) and wiping up drool.  The super-cute James did great, too.  He was fascinated by the camera's shutter clicks and put up with all this nonsense for about an hour without ever getting crabby or tired.
