My friend asked me to photograph her son for fun last week. It was the busiest thirty minutes chasing him around and praying something would work for her. On top of that, my portrait lens broke (boo hoo) a couple months ago. I've yet to find the extra $1400 to replace it with the lens I want, so I'm stuck shooting without it for now.
It's hard to shoot other peoples children because I "strongly dislike" traditional family portraiture and so I am not ever sure if the people I'm shooting for like what I've given them. I thought these two shots turned out quite lovely and I really hope she likes them as much as I do.
