For some reason the second I am put on the spot I forget everything I know about photography (not that I know all that much.) Several of the photos were ruined because I forgot to put on the hood and others were runied because I wasn't watching the light meter! That's basic photography! It's like my brain turns to jello or something. It's completely frustrating!
I'll stop with the frustrated rambling, here are a few photos from the shoot. Honest opinions are always appreciated.
I love the concept of this one with the parents on the bench and the baby sitting in front of them. Execution wise, it needs some work.
I love the candid faces in this one, and the baby turning away from the camera was reality in almost every picture. I swear he knew I wanted a picture and was determined not to give me the chance to take it!
A family on a hay bail, what's not to love? :)
A little nose picking is okay for the Christmas portrait right?

I like the backlighting, and I think your work is better than you think it is.
I'd crop the hay bale photo much closer, make that their main image. (The baby is in control!) I cropped it to where they were in the very center of the image, and actually cut out his knees and her hip.
Do you have a pbase account?
Sandy I love the photos. You did great. What kind of lens do you need and how much. Maybe I could help you with that for Christmas.
Love Ya

My favorite is the second to last one. Lighting is very pretty, S.
I don't know enough about such things to give advice; I just know what I like. :)
Cara,I don't know what pbase is. Thank you for the crop idea. I did it, and loved it! I'm probably a little too critical of my work. I just want perfection. :)
Thank you mom, I'll e-mail you about the lens but don't say I didn't warn you. :)
Thanks Kristen! That one is my favorite too.:)
Scratch the not knowing what pbase is. I remember now. I can't remember if I set up an account or not, but I'm going to check it out.
I think the photos turned out great.
Thanks for stopping by, I'm glad you like the redesign.
