PPBF Weekly Photo Challenge
Jul 20th
My Son Trey Smiling for the Camera
I was reading the blog of one of my favorite new sites called the Pro Photography Business Forum and they had a photo challenge for use of shallow depth of field. Using shallow depth of field (DOF) is one of my favorite in-camera tools, it brings the focus to the subject and lets everything else behind or around it go soft and out of focus. This image was taken with my Nikon D90 with my 50mm 1.8 lens using available light. Which is one of benefits of using such a fast lens wide open. Of course there are ways to drop the background out of focus but why use that if you have it built in camera? Plus it will always look more natural this way because it is a natural effect rather then a processed effect.
I entered into the photo challenge and posted it here if your interested to check out everyone else’s work please do there are some great photos posted already!
Thanks for reading have a wonderful day!

Days in the life
Jun 14th
I’ve thought about this post for a few days and which direction to take it, so here it is. I am a father of an 8th month old baby boy. Everyone says once you have a child it changes you as a person. This has come so true in my life. Nothing I could have done to prepare myself for him would have been enough. The amount of joy he provides me on a daily basis is uncanny! Sure it has ups and downs during the day. But when he looks up at me with his big blue eyes all my problems go away for those few moments. I am truly blessed to spend my days enjoying the smiles and laughter with my wife and son!
