Tough Fight

Had to document a real bruise that my son received from a toy

shopping cart. Do you like it better in color or BW?

Here it is in color...

The BW is an instant classic, well done! Both are great!

Even better esp as he doesn't look proud.

 

Ha, that will be one to shot the girlfriend when she comes round!

 

Ger..

oh, what a sweet little boy dear Emily and you have captured him so well. A great poser this Boxer :) love the make-up under his eye :):)

 

soooo sweetttttt!

 

Biliana

The Black and White for sure---can you imagin how much less effective Raging Bull would have been shot in color?---great shot---super pose and expression by the little guy---7/7 ML

Thanks Ger, Biliana and Michael - I want to get a large one made for his room but now I am confused. I like the vivid colors but I think the BW is more classic. Ugh!

 

Biliana - Unfortunately no make-up was used. He had an accident at his daycare which gave me the inspiration for this shot. He is definitely all boy and thinks he has to run everywhere versus walk. As I type this he is sitting next to me with ice in hand since he just tripped while running and hit his head on our floor molding... He is only 20 months and has had more injuries than my 7 and 5 year old combined - poor little guy. This is our first ever black eye so can't think of a better to make it a memory:)

I didn't scroll up enough and missed you. Thank you for always being so supportive and offering your comments/advice. I always can count on you and look forward to hearing your thoughts.

BW for me. I love this photo.

Emily, your childrens shot always inspire me, I am slowly trying to get my own studio started. I love shooting small children, (with my camera, lol) but have mostly been doing families and senior portraits which is also fun! BUsiness is just starting to take off this summer. I can't wait until the time when I can do it full time!

What a great shot, you're to funny. Most mothers would run to the doctor but you run to the studio and add props!!! To cool! You may qualify for Photographer's Anonymous!

 

I think I like the B&W better but the color is nice - maybe better with a background other than washed out white.

 

You're good!!!
