What do I do to relax on the 4th of July when the family comes over?

I take more pictures… that’s what I do.

I don’t know if I am a sick or if I just enjoy photography THAT MUCH… my guess is a little bit from column A and a little bit from Column B. :P

Anyways, I took some photos that day. I usually shoot on a dark grey background because I like the moodiness of darker backs but I’ve been obsessed with high key portraits lately and it so happened that I bought some new lighting equipment lately… so, I had to try it…!!

FYI:

I focused all my attention on lighting, on the expressions and on the poses. There is little to no editing done on these photos. especially no Photoshop of all the little flyaway hairs.

But, I was so happy with the results… especially with the photos I took of the little human children I have been raising. It is the perfect representation of their relationship. (I wish I could add the facepalm emoji right there)
