wait...they've got props...


when my daughter and her boyfriend volunteered at help-portrait with me
we had time to sneak into an empty bay after lunch


this is close to the same photo above. i just couldn't decide which one i liked best


as i was almost finished shooting
she says, "wait, they've got props"


it's sure a good thing she's a got a guy with a sense of humor like ours



and
the icing on the cake
~
this is their take on how NOT to pose for a photo
{unless of course you're a dork}
*
adult "kids" are really actually pretty darn cool to hang out with
~
these were all taken using only the overhead lights in the food pantry 
 ISO 1600 50mm 2.8

  18. Beth,
    Love these photos!
    Your daughter is A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E!
    (And she looks like her mother!)
    What a cute couple! It must be so fun for you to be their photographer...seeing through the eyes of a mother.
    The lense unable to focus as deep as you see.
    What gifts!
    Happy Winter Solstice!
