A Question and a Concern.

I was recently given an assignment to photograph a woman breast-feeding as a part of a larger story about Missouri not reaching the Center for Disease Control's standards of breast-feeding. 

I was instructed to keep the photos tasteful, which I believe I did. However, one of the reasons the first photo didn't run was for a reason I didn't foresee. My editor told me that she didn't think my subject would want her legs to in the paper because they had hair on them. I said that if she made the decision to shave her legs/have a photographer be with her during such an intimate moment, that she wouldn't care.

The discussion ended shortly after, and a photo similar to the second ran instead. I think I should've fought for my photo more. I understand my editor's concerns and respect her opinion, but I love this photo and wish it could have seen print. What do you think?

Breast-feeding
Sarah Davis has been a member of La Leche League, an international organization that encourages mothers to breast-feed their childen, for seven years.

Dancedancedance

From the Earthdance Festival in Columbia. I was frustrated that the festival was moved into 3200 ISO land in a church basement instead of being outside as planned. I tried to make the best of the situation, but I'd like to get some wider shots. It was hard to make a good full body photo because of the busy backgrounds. Oh well.

Back to Farm Reunion

After shooting the beginning of a bike race at the Boone County fairgrounds, I drove back to downtown Columbia, picked up the reporter, then headed to Boonville. I wish I could've spent a little more time here, but I had more assignments. You can see the article here. Here are a few favorites.

I Like My Cameras Plastic.

Doug/Doogin/Dougie/Awesome Boyfriend got me an itty bitty little camera from photojojo. It's called the Ultra Wide Angle Slim, but I don't like calling it that because it kind of makes me think of tampons (now you are thinking about it, too).

Anyway, here are a few of my favorites.

Tim + Rebekah: Part One

God, this wedding was beautiful. I'm grateful to Anjali Pinto for letting me assist this gorgeous wedding at Salvage One in Chicago. We decided that this place had to have been designed by a photographer. I think every hour was golden hour!
