Eye Contact

The eyes are a window to the soul, or so the saying goes. I definitely believe that one of the most important aspects of portrait photography is capturing the eyes the way you want them in order to portray the mood of the photograph and personality of the subject.
 
In these images, I took this to a new level by focusing on the eye alone as my subject. It certainly helps to have subjects with captivating eyes. The first set is a natural look, and the second set is the same three eyes with a little creative touch applied. Enjoy some fantastic eye contact!

Those Darn Squirrels

***MK PHOTOGRAPHY HAS A NEW WEBSITE***

We have albino squirrels that roam our neighborhood. Two of them made their first appearance a few years ago, and since we couldn't tell them apart we referred to them both by the same name. We lovingly dubbed them "Oswald". Over the last couple of years the Oswalds reproduced and their offspring have all inherited the name Oswald as well. So these photos are probably of three different squirrels, but they are all of a squirrel named Oswald.
 
 
There is something about these albino squirrels that is just creepy. They peer right into your soul.
 

 
They are constantly snooping around our bird feeders, so if you want to see/photograph them, just set out some food on the deck and wait a couple of minutes. We honestly see the albino ones more than normal gray squirrels these days.
 

 
No matter what we do to try and keep them out of the bird food...they cannot be deterred, hahaha!

I took pictures of adorable baby Parker and his mommy a few weeks ago. He is six weeks old in the pictures. What a treat to meet this little guy for the first time!
