Spying...

I rented a 70-200 f2.8 lens at Samy's Camera awhile back and ended up only having enough time to try it quickly around the house.
I just came across the photos!
It was around noon, on a very sunny day, not ideal for shooting outdoors in direct sunlight,
but I had to at least try the lens before returning it.

If you read this blog and ever wonder why there is not more photos of my almost 2 yr old on here, its because he tends to do two things when he sees my camera:
He either runs away, or else he wants to sit right on top of me,
both not very good options for photos.
Well, this lens allowed me to spy on him without disrupting his natural rhythm.
Its a very expensive lens, otherwise I would go out and get one right away!
Here are a few pics of my second little man.

Yay for chubby cheeks!

I love his scraggly blond hair!

Mowing the lawn...

Sneaking into his big brother's room...

Checkin' out his sweet music collection

"Curious George Soundtrack... good stuff..."

"I have a feeling I am being watched..."

Aww, he caught me!
"I see you Momma!"

Have a great rest of your week!
I am shooting a wedding this weekend, and the forecast is RAIN!
Wish me luck!
And no, I normally don't do weddings, but sometimes I am open to smaller, intimate weddings. This one felt right, so I agreed to it.
I hope they get a few dry moments for some outside shots!
I'll let you know how it goes :)

Fantastic shots. So good to have an opportunity like this to catch him so attractively unaware!
