Maternity session- Raleigh Rose Garden

Last week I met a great couple, Marcus & Kena, at the Raleigh Rose Garden for a quick maternity shoot.

A free lens photograph of Kena’s belly.  Free lensing is a technique where you put the camera on Manual, set the focus on infinity and remove the lens from the camera body.  By moving the lens, you achieve a tilt-shift effect you cannot create in Photoshop.

Marcus is a US Marine who was being sent back to Iraq two days later :( .  Unfortunately, he will be gone for the birth of his son.  I wish him the best of luck.

Kena was a trooper.  We scheduled the session for 9am-early for most people.  However, I have found that pregnancy, heat, and the brain do not work well together (ask my wife about the 14 mile bike ride I took her on the day before she realized she was pregnant.  I am lucky to have survived).

Kena needed to sit down at the end of the shoot, but kept her sense of humor.

The photographs at the Raleigh Rose Garden are a mixture of digital and digital infrared.

Thanks Marcus and Kena.

Sincerely,

Ryan
