Baby on board and the second one for me. She just looks so happy in that one.
I am sure they will love all of them and look back with fond memories.

2, 4, and 9 for me! Love those three. Not so keen on the flower ones, harsh flash shadows and she's holding it awkwardly. I would like 5 in other circumstances but he looks a bit mad in it, which doesn't seem to go well with the pregnancy theme!

I think 2,4 and 6 come out best. However, I think 2 could have been improved with a little reflected light up into the face to take away some of the dark shadows! Agree with comments re the flowers and the "mad" father to be...Just my thoughts

I'm not so keen on the flower ones but think the whole series is very good. I'm with Emma that they will look back at these shots with fond memories.
My favourites are 5 (I do like that mad look) and 6.
I took a moment to look through your PPG and I only can recommend it. Fantastic set of shots!

I wouldn't know where to start with an assignment like this so well done! Having said that I like baby on board and the last one the best. The one with the booties would be great too but the shadows on his face are a little dark.
Glad to see the K series lenses doing you proud. I haven't found a K24... yet!
Best wishes and well done, Kris.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

thank you Kris.
Yes, the K series is lovely. So lovely I'm considering selling my ltds to fund other Ks (35/2 specificaly) and save some cash
With the 24 it's love hate relationship, when it delivers, it does great... but being 24mm "only" 2.8 and on APSC VF (even with magnifying cup and split screen) I'm having hard time to focus it!
... maybe for the right price......

Mom to be is my former colegue from work, she has just started her maternity leave and decided to have some memories. I was more than happy to help out as part of my portraiture training/portfolio building...
Took 5 lenses but used only 4 and two flashes...
what do you guys think?
