1 year pictures.

Foques

If you recall, I had taken pictures for my coworker for their 3,6,9 months.. as well as their Christmas..

well, last week, it was 1 year, and we were supposed to shoot outside. The "park" ended up being a small playground with a few trees, we were rapidly losing light, and there were swarms of other kids running around.. I found it shocking that parents wouldn't ask their children to at least not be in the frame.. I had to toss a lot of images because kids were sticking their heads from behind my coworker/his girl or wife..

here she is.

#5 s great. Love the perspective, the face, the background and dad's hands.

I like the last three best. I'd say you did a good job considering what you had to work with!

Good job working with that many distractions!

I might boost the contrast a bit in processing - maybe even play with some effects to try and create the illusion of less flat light - and I think you can afford to play with some imaginative crops as well, but I think you captured some cute moments - I'm sure the parents will be happy to have them.

PS 7 would make an adorable B&W or toned B&W; the processing could really help draw attention to the little girl
