And it surely did for us today. We just received one of the best Christmas presents ever (besides LB)...a new camera from Grandma and Grandpa Connelly and Grandma and Grandpa Kuykendall! Our spiffy new camera is so awesome, we don't even know yet what it is capable of. We do know that LB will be one of the most photographed little girls on the face of the earth, a close second to Ms. Piper, her niece. It's the "first child" syndrome I guess, my brother Josh has really become quite the photographer over the last 5 years. So much that Piper can strike several different poses within a few seconds, just like any seasoned model. If Eden has any chance to be in a photo by herself, it's only if Piper is too busy doing something else! Wonder if that will happen with LB and Leyla, haha.
We've included some of our first "shots" just for fun. I absolutely can not wait to learn how to use this bad boy. I won't be sleeping much tonight, I'm so excited. And I just can't hide it.
My first favorite with the new camera!
She's ready to party!
What a nice flattering shot of me...
What a cutie!
Sister,
ReplyDeleteHope you like the camera...you officially have one better than I do now. Just save up for a little bit and i can give you some pointers on different lenses to purchase. You may even want to buy an external flash...you will be so glad you did when taking photos at dusk, indoors, etc. I love that you now have so much more control over f-stop and depth of field; the picture of Layla is awesome because her nose is in focus and her eyes are slightly out (very artistic). I would be more than glad to help you out with a few things but it sounds like you have a ton of friends there that can hook you up! Love your guts, guys!!!
Dax and Jess-
ReplyDeleteWe love your blog!
Peyton is wonderful and we are settling in nicely. We'll have to get together soon so that you can meet our little man :)
I hope you continue to feel great through the rest of your pregnancy and please let us know if you need anything at all.
Kathleen, Aaron, and Peyton
