Can I borrow your baby?

Aspiring photographer strikes again.

Took advantage of the fact that Holly Strebel (see her hilarious blog here) was bringing adorable Miss Charlotte to my place for a BBQ, and asked her if I could practice some infant portraits on her child so I could learn.

They definitely did NOT come out like I envisioned (namely because I don't have a light kit or studio backgrounds or any knowledge of how to use a flash), BUT, I was able to capture these two, which are my faves. :)

The picture above is a milestone for me - I am ALWAYS complaining that the contrast with my cheapy lens SUCKS, but it turned out awesome in this one!  LOVE that hot pink!

 This one I had a little editing fun with:


Two out of FIFTY ain't bad! ;)
