Cute rating: 10 out of 10

My friend Mandy has one of the cutest nieces EVER. Her name is Em, and she loved to be in front of the camera! It's no surprise why new moms tend to photograph their kids so much. Working at a photography school, I come across a lot of students that got interested in photography after they had kids - mainly because the cuteness of their kids got them shooting so much!
I didn't get into photography because of portraits - at first (believe it or not) I hated taking pictures of people. Which is quite surprising, seeing as the majority of my photography involves portraits now. It wasn't until a portrait shoot I did several years ago with my new DSLR that got me hooked on portrait photography. With the right lens, the right light and the right subject, there's nothing stopping me from shooting for hours! There's something about it that is completely captivating - the subtle looks, the personality, the mood... a person says a lot in terms of emotion and mood, and putting that into a photo is what drives me when doing a portrait shoot.
