We have kids over at our house all the time. It helps that most of them are aspiring models too – anytime they see a camera they’ll want to pose no matter what they’re doing! OR eat it depending on their age.

Kids, really are a riot though – but this weekend was special because I wanted to test out my NEW LENS! Without going full out nerd – its a Canon 85mm F1.8 and I got it strictly to take Portraits. Its light and very sharp.

Some of my favourite all time photos are of Diya. She smiles for the camera and knows how to strike a pose. Ironically, annoying and irritating her is what I do best.

This kid is a monster – Gurshaan. He looks cute and charming but is very dangerous. I have to hide my DVD collection, any camera gear, blackberry, phones or anything fragile before he comes over.

Doesn’t it look like this guy can model for a Abercombie and Fitch – baby line? He’s definitely got the hair and smile.

All in all I’m loving the lens on my 5D Mark II. A great combination to shoot kids.

I don’t have kids – so right now, the best thing about kids visiting is they eventually go home and I can get back to my movie (I know that won’t happen when I have my own). Thanks for coming!
