Madi's Many Moods

Madison came over with her family for some pictures..... she's three. She will occasionally have a total meltdown where the core goes all the way to China.... but mostly she's just a kid.
As with any kid... they aren't just all smiles.......




These were taken in the studio with the D3, 24-50 and 105mm. 1/250th at F16, ASA 200 on all.

Amber in Autumn

Tis' the season for Senior Pictures and Lee's Summit's finest visited on Sunday. Amber is in her senior year and we did studio shots and then traveled down to one of my favorite spots... the West Bottoms... for some location work. She's wants to be a Registered Nurse and is already taking a course to that end.
These are just a few of the 88 shots she has to choose from.

Amber also dances and has entered several pageants.... winning Miss Photogenic in her last outing.... she's fun and a very good sport to sit on the ground :)
Studio shots were taken with the Nikon D3 and the 1o5mm... my favorite portrait lens... location shots were with the same camera and some with the 24-50mm lens, but most with the 70-200mm lens wide open at 2.8. ASA 200 on all shots.
