Default My Baby Boy - Well, almost 7 year old
Got my new 85mm 1.8, put it on my camera and this was the very first shot. Now please scuze the onboard flash, but was excited about my new toy!

This is a great portrait. Lucky for you he stands still long enough to let you try out your new toy! Most kids would run the other way.... Love this portrait - his smile is infectious. TFS.

I love the way that his smile and eyes are as bright and sparkling as the Christmas lights behind him! Wishing you lots more wonderful photos with that new lens.

Yeah, yeah, I know. I had the choice of spending the better part of 20 min setting everything up OR slapping on the flash and snapping away in less than a minute...
