A year already?

My friends Jake and Nicole have given me the opportunity to follow their journey into parenthood. I initially photographed the couple during Nicole’s pregnancy. Later, I photographed baby Wes *very* soon after he was born and then again at 6 months. No matter how many kids and families I get to shoot photos with, I am always – ALWAYS – amazed at how quickly children grow up. I can’t believe I just shot one year old portraits for my little buddy, Wes. Happy birthday, little man! And thank you to “The Jakes” for letting me have a part in your adventure.

I rarely encourage models to sleep through photo shoots, but it’s perfectly acceptable for a newborn photo session.

This weekend, I was honored to capture some photographs of Jake & Nicole’s now 3 week old baby boy.  We’ve come full-circle.  A few weeks ago we were strolling through Fort Mill, SC shooting their maternity portraits.  They’re proud parents with a handsome boy, and even though he won’t remember any of it he did great!

I shot these photos with my D300, 60mm/f2.8 and 2 SB-28dx flashes at the family’s home. One flash was on the camera. The other I positioned in random spots around the room, triggering it with my Pocket Wizard remotes. I’ve come to love the Nikkor 60mm Micro lens for portraits. The lens’ sharpness is perfect, and the macro focusing capability allows for tight, intimate people pictures.  See a few more at Facebook.
