Ding-dong, the door bell rang today and it was UPS. I always say that I love the chocolate brown truck, but today the delivery was super sweet!

This, my dear friends (and clients), is my new "toy". It is the awesomeness that is called Canon EOS 60D paired with a Tamron SP AF28-75mm F/2.8 (and the name goes on) lens, which is going to give me the most beautiful images. With a fixed 2.8 aperture, bokeh (that beautiful fuzziness we all love) is no longer a dream but a reality on all shots! Which means I can "blur-out" a multitude of sins in the background.

Thank you too all my friends who have supported me in this dream. We don't have that many friends here in the USA (since we've only been here for 2 1/2 years) but most of them have let me take pictures and I know will support me in the future. Many of you have spoken wonderful words of encouragement, telling me I have a gift, a good eye and the stuff to make it and that has helped me tremendously. I promise to keep doing what I'm doing, and now, with this beautiful black baby pictured above we will get even better results! 

And now I'm off to get to know my new baby! I won't be shooting with her for a little while, we first need to get to know each other a bit better, I think....

There is much anticipation here at Katja Wright Photography today, as I await the arrival of some new equipment hopefully tomorrow. I have the most wonderful and supportive silent partner a girl could ever wish for!

 

All I will say is that it's mostly black, it's partly round, it's somewhat shiny and it's got many fun buttons and it's going to take some seriously awesome images!

 

To quote a certain movie - "So come up to the lab and see what's on the slab. I see you shiver with antici... pation."  

 

 

Little Miss C.

This past weekend I had the pleasure of taking Little Miss C's 4 year old pictures and we had a lot of fun together. Let's just say Little Miss C is going through that "funny-smile-stage", she was so cute. Every time I lifted my camera to start shooting she'd put on this "super-grin".....her mother and I had a real job trying to make her relax a bit.

Believe it or not, this shoot took place in an open-air mall parking area and the entrance to a stone quarry! This is one resourceful Mama, who has a good eye and knows what she wants! I love clients who help me get what they are looking for! I hope we achieved the goal?

Thanks again for making my return to "work" so easy and fun, I had a great time and felt completely well and happy to be back clicking that button!

I hope you'll enjoy the pictures.
