Cindy Mills Photography

I came across some interesting articles today and immediately knew I had to share them here.  Author Marianne Drenthe has three articles on her site, Professional Child Photographer, that are very helpful in explaining just what it is that I do, why it costs what it does and how you can be sure I’m the right photographer for you.  Check them out.  VERY informative!

And since no post is complete without a photo…….Here are a few recent shots of one of my dear friends from high school.  We got together for lunch recently and shot a few maternity pictures.  Now tell me……….Can Wal-Mart or Sears do this?

Seriously………although it made me feel better that she still needed help getting up off the floor. At one month before Mia was due the only shoes I could put on were flip flops and I couldn’t see my feet so I had to feel around until I found one and slip it on hoping I got it on the right foot.

Anyway, I had so much fun with this session. I had so many more ideas of things we could have done once I left, but I think we got some really great images. I tried out a lens that I almost never use and found out it is not quite as sharp as my 50mm so I was a little disappointed in that. Also I have a few that are pretty grainy because it was really cloudy out on Sat. morning and I had to use the highest ISO my camera has, but I really like the feel of these. The first is my favorite. I love, love, love that her husband and son are having breakfast in the background. That was totally unplanned by the way. I also had to throw in the two in the nursery. It has the cutest Hawaiian theme. I wish I had gotten one of the surfboard that was handmade and painted by grandma. I could go on and on. Anyway……here they are. Enjoy!
