Thanks for peeking









Cheers
Dan

mmm... on first peek I'd have to agree Dan... and I'm guessing that your subject has thoughts along similar lines... hehehe.

Well i tried but if the kid was just going to cry cry and cry some more there wasnt much i could do....

yep... I hear you... sometimes a good idea to have some items of bribery available... food, toys, fat noises etc... other times it's just not gunna happen

i'm gonna say something that i never, ever, ever thought i'd be saying in one of your photo threads Dan...they're bloody awful.

in all seriousnous though, there aint much you can do if the kid is in a bad mood. i've had to abandon shoots if i cant get babies cooperating. once they get to 1 year old you can normally snap em out of a bad mood by acting the clown, offering treats etc. looks like theres alot of lighting in those shots. you probably scared the crap outta the little fella mate !

Ahhh.. welcome to my life for the whole last year!!!

They really are a whole other species, these bubs... AT BEST, you get about a 5 minute window before they get cranky

Well i think awful is a little harsh i was going for a specific look with the images really high key and make a point of the blue eyes...client loves them so i guess thats a win

I must say also that brief was to do something very different and a little out there..

I still got paid

Dan

#1 - The colours in this shot are just so sublime to the point of being ethereal, love it!

#2 - “You’re gonna what?”

#3 - “Oh! Really”

#4 - “Bugger off or I’ll tell my Mum about you”

Love em all Dan and keep thinking outside the box

Dropping your 50mm f/1.4 onto the floor and letting it oll down a flight or two of stairs .....
