There’s never really such thing as a private moment when you’re the wife/daughter of a photographer.
I’ve been trying to get used to my new Nikon D3/85mm combo (oh baby.) so I’ve been carrying it around with me. Yesterday was haircut day for mom & Kels (Reagan would have but she’s growing it to donate to Locks of Love again. Baby G & I are due for one soon). The outstanding new hairstyles, along with the beautiful afternoon light shining through our wall of windows compelled me to grab some shots that I love, so I figured I’d share.
Fortunately for me, these daughters & wife don’t seem to mind being in front of the lens.
Here are a few of the photos I took.
P.S. The B&W photos are natural light shots and the color shot was taken with my new Photek 60″ Softlighter & AlienBee.






aww…so beautiful!
Great shots, naturals infront of the camera!
Too cute!
Lovely set of images Matt :~) A great personal family document too! I love the hair flip in that6 last shot!
too too too cute!
Cute shots! I love that lens for head shots.
So true! My wife and duaghter are constantly in front of the camera. These are some really great shots!
Beautiful! The last one is my favorite!
Lovely

Haha, isn’t it so fun to make friends and family be guinea pigs for new equipment? Cheers to having people around you who appreciate your work and support your experiments.
what a treasure, a wonderful collection.
Beautiful shots
That last colour shot is great!
Love that first black and white. Beautiful.
I prefer the sheer economy of the D700. The IQ is 99% as good as the D3s. I have a grip for it too. It’s comparable to the D3 in size with the grip on, but it’s nice to be able to take the grip off and put on a 50mm for walk in the city.
For the price of a new D3s, you can get a used D700 + grip + 24-70 and still have money left over.
