My oh my, I can’t even tell you how much I enjoy photographing new babies on film.  This session added more confirmation, film and babies = the best.  This day was such a dark and dreary one, I was a tiny bit worried about the light but with my skill-set to guide me it all worked out perfectly great.  The images below don’t even hint at the darkness of that day, which is just one of the advantages of film!

This session was a gift for the family, a first for me actually.  To the mother below, it was unexpected blessing.  I was so thrilled today to give her these images, I truly hope they cherish them forever.

Details:  Contax 645 &  Canon Elan 7 using Kodak Portra 800 & Ilford XP2 film.
