Baby Seth Portraits

After a few months of rescheduling due to weather and various illnesses (both him and me, actually), I finally got to photograph this little bundle of fun. The session lasted about an hour and twenty minutes before Seth had enough with me and my camera in his face. In that time I shot just under 900 frames! I made sure that I had the proper batteries in my D300 to give me 9 frames per second; you want to increase your chances of getting that great shot as much as you can. I processed the photos and had them ready to deliver on DVD in just over 2 weeks. This was due to my excitement for working on photos of this cute little guy. Can’t wait for more photo shoots with this one!!

Danny the Engineer

This is Danny’s second shoot with me, I previously did his one-year-old shots last summer, when he was all decked out with his Yankee gear. For this year’s two-year-old shots, Danny was all about the trains. We went out to a local train museum where they had lots of full-sized train engines and cars. The guy was a trooper since it was over 100 degrees and he had his overalls and a hat on! He gets credit from me for having a smile in so many of these shots, that’s for sure.

A few weeks back I had a session with a 13 month-old toddler named Danny. He and his folks are way into the NY Yankees so I asked his mom to bring along his baseball cap and we’d try to get some shots on a local field. Not only did he have his Yankees cap, he also had a mini baseball bat that we had him use while we shot. Here are some shots from that session.
