A Few Shots From My Daughters Birthday

mrclark321 · 24th of April 2006 (Mon)

Alysha just turned seven years old ( boy time flys )
This was the smaller party and shes having all the girls from here class out in the next few days. We had a pinata in the garage because it was raining out and my daughter Alysha, my son Josh and one of my daughters friends got to have fun smashing Spongebob. Cake and presents followed, everyone had a great time. Here is some pics, nothing special just family fun.

Dan

She loves stuffed animals

Calling Nana and telling her what she got.

Lovely Dano! Happy Birthday!!!

drisley · 24th of April 2006 (Mon)

Ahah, ok, where are the action shots of the pinata being smashed!?

Pell · 24th of April 2006 (Mon)

Are you using a bounce flash or straight on flash for these images? If i had to guess i'd say straight on flash.

My only critique would be to use a bounce flash if possible with possible diffuser to help bounce some light back into the subject.

Otherwise nice work!

Stephen please feel free to critique, I really value your input.
I did use a diffuser for these (Omni-bounce) should have used the LSPJII but sometimes it's a pain in the arse to walk around with that thing.

Drisley I'll see if I can get some more shots posted in the morning when my son was hitting it.

Happy Birthday to your daughter Dan!! I would have thought you would have given her a brand new 1DMkIIn but it looks like that didn't happen!!
