Enjoy!

There's some more on my blog

Way CUTE! Don't ya just love what you can capture during a little imprompt tu shoot? Nice work.

Ciao for now,
Jeanette

If you're ever in St. Louis, drop buy. I could use your services!

What's that the photography or the babysitting?

(I really don't babysit very often, it was kinda a last minute thing...)

Cool- I bet the parents were stoked! (or maybe that's why they asked you to begin with, hmmmm....)

Babysitting is an art form, so practice practice practice. Someday you will find your groove. You might want to incorporate babysitting with your portrait packages. For 1K I will potty train up to 1 toddler, provide one meal (pre fab) and shoot 50-100 images for you to select from. All of this in just 1 hour!

I think I just wrote you're next biz plan Chris. Take that to the bank!

...and that would lead to lots of editing, which of course- leads to more baby sitting. It's residual income!

Dude, 1k is DEFINETLY not enough..... for the potty training.

Good stuff Chris! Love the first and last ones!

I love the one on your blog where the girl is looking backwards upside down.

It is if you know the trick Chris. What's the trick? A pack of M&M's. Kids will scrub toilets if they know they get to knock back a few chocolate gems. So the bribe costs you less than a buck and you still walk away with $999. You can't get that kind of return on the market.

Good luck and keep me posted!

number 1 and the last one rock hard! What lense was used in the first one?

I tried to talk my wife into the idea of a babysitting/portrait session.... didnt go over well. I guess she knew she would be doing most of the babysitting part

Thanks! (here's the image...)





Thanks Amber, but your kid photography blows mine out of the water.





Thanks Adam!

Canon 85mm f1.8, all the rest of the shots were with the 70-200mm all taken on the Mark II N.
