Just playing around

One of the perks of hanging out with 65 other photographers for the week is that there are plenty of opportunities to try out new equipment. There was a lot of lens swapping, and I got the chance to try out the 85mm f/1.4 that I had been considering off and on for months. I have to say, it was love at first sight. I came home and immediately went shopping! Of course the availability on Okinawa still has a lot to be desired. So, I ended up ordering it online and it finally arrived today.

Mia was kind enough to let me take her picture after much negotiation and bartering.

Me: How about this, I’ll give you an afterschool snack and then I’ll take you to the park if you let me take your picture?

Mia: What kind of snack?

Me: How about some craisins?

Mia: How about some candy?

Me: Well, I didn’t bring any candy. I only brought craisins.

Mia: Ok, but you can only take one picture.

Me: How about 10 pictures?

Mia: How about 6?

I figured that was a better deal than I usually get, so I took the deal! Here are a couple from today:

Oh and where was Ellerie during all of this? Let’s just say she wasn’t in a picture-taking kind of mood…

Ellerie’s Session

On a whim, I grabbed my camera on the way out the door this morning. I thought after I dropped Mia off at school I’d go check out a new location and do a 30 minute DIY session for Ellerie. We actually only made it to 23 minutes before she had had enough and made sure I knew it! Despite the fact that we left the house without combing her hair, I think I got some cute ones! Thought I’d share the results with you to give you a better idea of what to expect. Enjoy!
