And what is a post without an image?This is just one I was working with today that just took my breath away!
I went back to Baby J’s family to do their family session. Having three little boys is a full time job! We were almost going to reschedule the session as the boys were not having the greatest of days. I am so happy we stuck it out!

Being a photographer I see the world as a pattern of shadows and light. There is something so beautiful about shadows that brings a photograph to a whole new level of art and beauty. It often reminds me how much we need the dark parts of life to add dimension to who we are, and give the lighter parts of our experiences a whole new level of quality. ( Getting of my soapbox now! :0D )
I am so glad Rochelle obliged and let me use the awesome light (and dark!) of this tunnel to capture some moody shots.
