Spy Kids

2007.04.30

On Saturday, I took photos of a birthday party for a one year old (a paid job). I've taken photos for this family a few times and the kids have gotten used to having me around. None of them are shy. :) (see Saturday's post for a shot of Nicole).

I was taking photos of them on this playset while they spied on their parents, siblings, unseen wild animals, and pirates! And then I heard "I see her" and I realized that as I "spied" on them thru my lens, they were spying on me!

Photo Data - D200, 70-300 VR lens, ISO 100, handheld.

Thanks everyone! :) It is fun working for that family. They treat me like a part of the family now.

No, no filters. It's set on color mode vibrant but the colors are true to what they were. Photoshop tries to bump them up even more but I usually reset them. Their backyard is very colorful with the red, red fence and the green, green grass. And the party theme was a luau so the kids were dressed colorfully too.
