Phoebe 7 Months

I have been long, LONG overdue for a camera upgrade.The last time I was in DFW, my camera failed me. I lost an entire morning of mini sessions due to my camera failing to perform how I needed it to. So with a trip coming up this weekend I decided to go ahead and test out the D700 on my gorgeous 7 month old in the morning light. I'm hooked.

These were taken on my bed next to a large East facing window at about 9am with lots of fog and overcast. This would have put my D90 through the ringer but was easy work for the D700. I barely turned the ISO up t0 640 for some which left no noticeable noise. Excited to get some families in front of this bad boy.

Little Liam | 8 Months

Some of my favorite clients made the exhaustive drive from Fort Worth to Rockport. Not only was it time for their son's eight month pictures, but they wanted to capture his first kiss of the ocean, and I was thrilled to be a part of it.I was definitely feeling a little bit of pressure when, upon arriving to the ferry, it was the busiest I've seen it all year. We go out to the Island as often as once a week and I hadn't seen it this busy since I was a kid. The fishing guides all said that was "the day" to catch a big one, so everyone descended with their beer and gear. Unfortunately for me, the sun was setting fast and I was counting the minutes that we had to shoot before the moon came to great us. We arrived at our location to find high tide had come to play. The water was all the way up to the dunes, leaving no trace of the white sand beaches that usually dance in the wind.

But the Haczynskis, they are the best. They moved quickly, had fun, and looked amazing while doing it.
