know those newborn shots I tend to do...in chairs...bookcases...bowls... in (insert household object of choice..)
Well... there is always a spotter. That is usually a parent. After all.. I can't catch a baby..and take the picture at the same time right? (I can multi-task..but not THAT well...)
Take a look at this shot...
Normally, I would have had Dad cropped out... and he thought he was going to be cropped out... so that expression of his... well...he is in serious awe of his boy. Sheer happiness. He didn't know his picture was being taken. OK.. I will admit...that I didn't plan on taking his picture either!
How on earth could I crop that expression out?
On a side note with my upcoming workshops....
I had a few cancellations, so I am contacting those on my wait list to see if they are interested in those spots. So make sure you all are checking your emails! (including SPAM folders...)

Awesome! Impossible to crop out an expression like that, for sure! Well, I wish I was #1 or #2 on your waiting list - but I think I'm #852. Ha ha! Maybe not that far down - but close! I love your work!!!
