    How very timely… I will be doing a newborn baby photo shoot within the next month. (crunch, crunch go the nails). And this one I will get paid for! Thank you so much for sharing. And I too agree, what is so special about babies.

    Oh this cracked me up. Sorry Bri – Ahn. You may be cute, but the baby will always win the cute contest over you. Maybe you should stick with funny and charming πŸ˜‰
    And YES. I LOVE the details. I never cease to be amazed at how perfect their tiny little fingers and toes and ears are. And those eyelashes. Perfect!

    I’m laughing out loud- Love the shot of Bri An Kohrs eyes & ear, but they just don’t match up to those gorgeous magical baby eyes! πŸ˜‰

    Sorry Bri-An Khor, guess you lost your baby magic πŸ™‚

    Details are my favorite thing to shoot too- my favorite lens for details is the 50mm 1.4 by far. Thanks for sharing my friend! hope you’re enjoying the summer now that you found it.

    I don’t know what you all are talking about!!! Brian is SOOO much cuter, in fact I think I’m going to copy and paste his pictures here and wall paper them all over my house! Nothing is as sweet and tender as ear hair!

    My son is almost 17 months old now and so easily distracted that I’m scared the sound of the shutter will wake him up!! LOL. So I’ve been shooting him with my iPhone when he’s asleep. On silent of course. I’ll try with the big today though. Well worth it!
