I had no idea exactly what was expected from the parent's so I told them I would go ahead and do everything candid, and for them to act like I wasn't even there for an hour. Any advice shall be heeded with utmost intent. Hahah.      Canon 1ds Mark II :. EF 24mm f/1.4 L USM II :. EF 35-350mm f/3.5-5.6L USM :. EF 85mm f/1.8 :. 580 EX II

Very nice;however, I would have liked the 2nd shot more with a shallower depth of field and a tighter crop so that I'm totally and completely drawn to the baby's face and not the lamp behind her. All in all, very lovely. mary

If you turn on "image editing ok", some of us can show you what WE would do with the photos after the fact. You'd be free to accept or reject that advice....my fav is the one of dad feeding baby in the rocking chair. very nice. Sue Cassidy

That would be the only extraneous stuff I might take out. Car Builder, Nursing Student, Father to four boys, and a photographer wannabe.

Mar 20, 2011 03:00 | #14 Well, the reason I didn't crop out the hallway was solely for the reason that the father was headed that way to change the baby's diaper... I think the most important part of candid photography isn't nailing the technical aspect, but being able to tell a story. (if there are distractions, then sure, but in this case I never felt the hallway was too terribly distracting). Canon 1ds Mark II :. EF 24mm f/1.4 L USM II :. EF 35-350mm f/3.5-5.6L USM :.
