Baby Portraiture

Visited my friend in Wakayama just before I fly back to Malaysia for a short summer vacation. At there I played with her little niece, a 8 months old new born. He is so cute and adorable. As a photog, I can't resist to pick up the camera and click the shutter.

Taking photos of a baby is not and easy task. You need to get his attention. You need to get him to look into your lens. But the difficult part is that you cannot keep the baby still for more than a second. Another difficult part is that I like to shoot with aperture wide open for portraiture, so any slight movement will result in soft focus images. Anyway, I think I've done a pretty good job for this series of photos. Hope you enjoy them!!

I've special love for black & white photos. And the last 2 photos are my favorite!!
