Photography Assignment

Since Gavin has been born, I've really gotten interested in photography. Brandon has gotten me an SLR, and I've been trying to learn as much as I can about shooting in manual. I've taken a photography class, and I've been lucky enough to find someone who is willing to mentor me. (Wende Trew...her work is beautiful) She gave me an assignment to do to try and expand my comfort zone. We were to take a picture of a subject using window light. So I used Gavin as my subject, of course, and here's what I came up with. I'm not usually a fan of black and white images, but I really like the way this one came out. He's so serious in it! It's getting more and more difficult for me to get Gavin to stay still long enough for me to take a photo, let alone get him to look at me! I guess I just need to keep practicing!
