A little monkying around with a young photographer

Being summertime and all sometimes Zoe has to come into the studio and hang for the day. Today she helped me set up to do a few quick shots on white and we nabbed a few shots of each other. I have to say it's pretty damn cool to see her holding a camera. Makes me smile almost every time. Ya know, except when I am asked to make my monkey face!

This is a shot from my daughter Zoe's first day of kindergarden almost 6 years ago. I documented the morning with one roll of Kodak 3200. This is the shot she picked out to go in her 5th grade scrapbook. The one she chose of her now is part of the Kids Faces series on my website, check it out here. Enjoy!

Another iPhone/Digi Holga

Here's another contact of the Hipstamatic iPhone Holga stuff. It's so much fun, I'm shooting with this thing everywhere!


Last night we were waiting patiently at the Dr.'s office and Zoe was playing games on my phone and she took these two images of me. I think they are super cool and also get excited when she shoots photos on her own, with out prompting and with an eye for composition! Keep up the great work Zoe!

Zoe Photo

Yesterday I turned Zoe loose with my Canon 5d Mark II camera and told her to shoot whatever she wanted, as much as she wanted to. When she was done we geeked out on the computer a bit and she chose one to print. It's this b+w still life above.

It looks awesome in color so I'm showing that too.

Here are some behind the scenes iPhone snaps of her at work:




Zoe you rule! I'm very proud of you and your creativity!
