Photographing one of my favorite toddlers
Whenever I visit Boston I make a trip to my friend's house. My favorite subject in the house to photograph is her son. At age 4, he speaks only Russian with an adorable lisp that I would pay for on a per-item basis. He's gotten very comfortable with me and my big camera, as well as the flashes t[...]
Yay Photoshop
Today I took a Photoshop class at B&H. The guy spoke at 95 miles an hour, but somehow I managed to get bits of useful information from him, and add it to the Photoshop skills that I already knew. Here is the before and after picture of an adorable boy I photographed at a wedding a year ago. N[...]
Modestly glamorous
I love shooting friends who have gotten tired of fighting me and my camera off, and have just accepted the reality that they will be photographed. Actually these particular friends like being photographed.
