My two youngest daughers, Jaiden and Joey are only 20 months apart, so we still have almost all of Jaiden’s baby clothes. This outfit in particular, that says “100% Angel” was definitely one we wanted to get a picture of Joey wearing before she gets too old (she’s 9 days old today).
You see, I have a picture of Jaiden wearing the exact same outfit when she was less than a week old …
It’s really neat to compare the two pictures to see how much they’re alike … and how different they are.
I’ll have to go back through my baby pictures of Jaiden to see if there are any other “compare and contrast” type shots that I can try to set up. In the mean time, I’m pretty happy with the way these came out. I may end up taking one more set sometime next week before we decide which one is getting printed and put up on the wall.
I actually kind of liked the expression on her face a bit better in this one …
But the eyes were much better in the picture that I put up there at the top.
Natural lighting btw. I laid out the pink blanket in her playpen, and opened the window shades to let in some nice soft afternoon light. There are a few shadows there, but it’s all good, I’m not a pro or anything … which is a good thing too, because I took a few shots earlier in the week with a flash on my camera … they all came out horrible … I just plain can’t take good pictures with a flash.
Anyhow, let me end this post, I go back to work for the first time tomorrow, so I should probably try to get to bed at a decent hour.
Til next time …
