A few years ago my cousin, Rhonda, asked me to do her maternity portraits. I was honored - it being my first request from a family member (the ones hardest to convince you're a 'professional'). Anyway, this was my first session with Mikyla, post birth. (I know?!?!?! She's two now, what took me so long?! hahaha) I drove to their new home in Newport News (congratulations guys!!!!) and spent the day snapping photos and visiting. I had a great time and definitely wish we got together more often. After all, they are family! =)
Isn't she adorable?!
Photographing children in a place that's familiar to them is really the key to getting my shots! They feel secure, relaxed and are quick to 'warm up' to the camera. Mikyla was no exception.
Don't get me wrong, I LoVE smiles, but this photo just grabs me! She's so photogenic!
