Week 2 of Beautiful People

Week 2 of the course covers " Boutique Babes "
Easier said than done with a 5½ month baby that doesn't sit up yet ! Not much of a choice for poses really in a situation like that.Having said that Sophie was in a very happy mood this morning, she usually is though so there was no problem there.
Although the assignment was for babies, some people don't have suitable models to use so we were allowed to use older children. I attempted a few on Sunday, in the 90deg heat with two girls desperate to get to the water slide that Daddy had put up in the garden - so they had no time for Nanny and her camera !!!
Can't decide which ones to leave out so apologies for such a photo heavy post :)

Sports Day 2010

I haven't been very good with this blog at all.I can't seem to find the time to keep two blogs going LOL
I thought I would upload some photos of my grandsons at their sports day yesterday to get it going again.

At Last !

Well as you can see it's been some while since I set this blog up with every intention of posting my photography. Things didn't go according to plan, not from the photography angle I might add but from the time aspect. Life just seem to get in the way sometimes.

Here are a few images that I took last week. My eldest daughter wanted photographs of the boys to print on a canvas for their Daddy's 40th birthday which is on Wednesday. So last Tuesday I set everything up in the conservatory ( there's good natural light in there)and they arrived ! From the moment Charlie ( 2 years old) arrived it was pretty obvious that he had no intention of having his photo taken!!

After much bribing, trickery and everything else we tried, I did manage to get a few decent shots, about 5 from a total of 149 images !!!! and Sian also managed to get her two canvases printed and they look fab.

I've converted some of them to Black & White. I have a weakness for black & white photographs !
