Jameson is Turning 1 and I "TRY" to Capture the Moment

My niece Brittany asked me to take Jameson's 1 year pics. If you remember correctly, I took his pictures a couple months ago. It was a gloomy/rainy day and we were limited on locations that protected us from the weather.  I promised her another photoshoot where we could get a little more creative.  We picked a day and were ready to go.  I had pinterested (is that a verb yet?) some ideas and knew I wanted to try some new things.  This probably wasn't the smartest idea for a beginner photographer (and I use the word photographer loosely).

I soon realized a few things:

a.) using props is WAY harder than I thought
b.) photographing on a gloomy day is WAY easier than photographing on a sunny day at noon
c.) I really need to take a class to figure out what the hell I'm doing

I left the photoshoot a bit frustrated, not knowing what I had accomplished. I was nervous that there wouldn't be ANY good shots of cute lil' Jameson.  I crossed my fingers and headed for my computer.

Here's what we got.... What do you think?












Not too shabby, right?
