The weather has finally turned for us this week and I am so thrilled to be shooting outdoors. There is something magical about the way the light filters through the trees at the park. While I still covet the 85mm 1.4G, my old 85 isn’t doing a shabby job capturing that sparkle!  Sunrise and sunset are always the best time of day to take outdoor portraits, but often babies are not happy campers around those times of day. I’d much rather have a happy baby with good light than a fussy baby with a glorious background. After all, it is those little beautiful little faces we’re all in love with! So, we headed out this week to seek out some patches of shade and catch some smiles in the warm sunny weather. Baby H was the first that I was able to enjoy the sunshine with. I had a great morning with this family, and can’t wait to show them the rest. I wish you could all see the dog shot even larger.  That one looks amazing blown up on my 27″ screen.  Canvas material for sure!

Stay tuned for lots of previews on their way today!
