I’m wondering if my blog is feeling lonely and neglected. It has been a while since I’ve posted, in large part because I’ve been occupied with so much work lately (of the day-job variety). I’ve hardly had the mental focus to type and write a post at 9pm — which is consistently when I’m available to do so. Wah, wah, wah. Call the wahmbulance.
Well, things are starting to pick up on the photography front now as well, beginning with this past weekend. As a baby shower gift, we gave our friends Tim and Lexi a family photo session.
Cora was born on February 10 and is now just over a month old. On Saturday, we headed out to their house in Franktown, hung out and took some pictures.
We did a series by the window — up close with the 50mm lens — and a few with the new ringflash (below).
See the resemblance? Just give Cora a few weeks and she’ll be all smiles like Dad.
Their dog Kana is perhaps the fastest land-born animal in the world (seriously: faster than a cheetah), but Tim was able to corral her in time for a shot. Ringflash + dogs eyes = freaky.
Being of the Irish persuasion, the Lamberton’s were looking forward to today, and Lexi’s sister had given just the right outfit for the occasion.
Let’s just say Cora wasn’t fond of the hat, or her dad wearing it.
So things are about to get interesting. This weekend we have an engagement photo session, and two weeks from Friday we embark on our 2009 trip. We’re heading to Guanajuato and San Miguel de Allende, Mexico for Holy Week. It should provide some amazing spectacles … I’m just hoping I’ll be sharp enough to do them justice. We leave April 3 and come back April 13. I think we’ll have internet access for much of the time, so I may be blogging from Mexico.
(feb 10th, not the 9th) Thanks again guys.
