  • Adorable. You are clearly getting the hang out of it. Heck, you might even be a wedding photographer soon ;)

    GAWD I want a good camera so bad. I have lots of furry subjects I could take pictures of.

  • Those pictures look amazing!

    Now I want a fancy camera...someone give me an excuse to buy one!

  • keb - Totes! ; )

    I've only had it five hours, but I'm learning slow and steady. I'm having issues with focusing, so I'm going to spend a few hours with my owners manual and online resources.

    Because get this -- I'm doing a newborn shoot tomorrow for my sister's bff. LOL. I'm sure her standards are low. Luckily what I lack in know how I can probably fake with some photoshop.

  • Great pics! And I'm sure the newborn pics will turn out great. Newborns are pretty still so as long as they are positioned well, they are easy. I have planned all of Amelia's pics and backgrounds so far so if you need ideas let me know.

  • Those are really good. Way better than anything I have taken, and I've had mine 2 months! I don't have anything to take pictures of! Crying My kitties won't hold still.

  • Very nice! I want a DSLR too but I can't justify the purchase whatsoever given our current financial situation. Le sigh.

  • Awesome pics mames! Now I want a "grown-up" camera! I love the monkey, is that a recent purchase? Where did you get it? Ayden has 3 monkeys but I think he could use another one since that will be his birthday party theme.

    GL with the newborn photo shoot. You'll do great I'm sure!

    Stuffed animals make cuter subjects than my fake yellow flower in a vase. lol. So much to learn! I hope I don't eff up these pics. I've only ever shot an amateur b-pic session with a DSLR for my bff last year. Bpics and babies are a bit different.

  • Here are some easy poses that we used.  If she has a Boppy, they are perfect for support.  We just covered it with a white cloth and then a blanket my aunt crocheted.  We have also used solid black and red cloths.

    I think all of the pictures are great, but I seriously love the first one.
