When I first met new parents Chasity and Michael Graff it was to photograph their Baton Rouge wedding at Lake House in October 2009. Now, just over one year after they married, they had their firstborn son Nathan Graff. An adorable munchkin (yep, I just said that), Nathan arrived at the studio session wide awake. I normally like to photograph newborns while they’re sleeping in order to capture their precious tranquil facial features. However, Nathan was too alert for that. Instead, we captured a range of facial expressions showing his wide-eyed looks.
I loved using the ring flash at the end in the red chair to give the images a completely “exposed” and almost scientific look with the direct flash. I hope to continue to document Nathan’s growth over the next year.
