Kim
Long Photography: Information: Babies
& Children
Children
As
a mother, I truly appreciate that the precious years of childhood
pass all too swiftly, and that quality photographic documentation
of them is truly priceless. As an artist, I place great emphasis on both the aesthetic and emotional
integrity of the these photos. In contrast with traditional studio
photography, my approach is relaxed and kinetic, and
I strive to foster an atmosphere in which children are free to
express themselves. My
style blends a documentary approach with flavors
of children's fashion photography and my own unique vision.

I don't insist on eye contact
for every shot, nor am I interested in coercing fake "camera
faces" from my subjects. I believe that the best smiles are
those that happen naturally, and I like to capture the nuances
of my subjects' full range of natural expressions.
Babies
Newborn
sessions are best done within the first ten days of baby's life,
and baby portraits can be done any time. It should be noted that
my baby photography emphasizes natural environmental portraits. If you are interested in the highly stylized, prop-and-accessory-intensive genre of baby photography, I recommend
seeking a someone whose style fits that niche.
