Black and White Portraits

I have been playing around more with portrait photography. As you may have seen in my previous posts, people aren't generally my main subject! I have a dream of conceptual photography, so I decided I really need to learn portraits!!! I advertised on Facebook that I would be doing free shoots to get models (hehehe free stuff always works!). The top girl is my younger sister. The little boy is my Facebook find.

Super happy thoughts your way!

Mother and Kittens

I love my mom a lot. We have a unique and special relationship that has developed since I moved out to attend college 5 years ago. Luckily, I still live close enough that I can go see her whenever I want or need. She doesn't like to have her picture taken, though. She has eased up since I have become a photography major but not a whole lot. Thus, this first image is my favorite of her.

She found these adorable little kittens, just at that age where they want to go out and explore but aren't old enough to be afraid of humans. I hauled my camera over to snap some shots of the cute little buggers, and here are my favorite pictures.
