My girl and I are getting close to our due date and we both had some ideas for this maternity portrait, so we created this set of life-styled photos for our little boy. Time flies, and soon enough, he will be able to look back and say “See, this is Me and my Mommy”.

I have not made any recent posts lately, it’s because I have been incredibly busy since November. You may have noticed the new re-designed site that suits the brand a little better, it still needs a bit of work but that’s same as life. This brand means a lot to me, and it’s completely about offering top quality service, quality, documenting life, and people.. I’m also looking forward to this summer, because as you can see in the photo we have a little surprise on the way. My girl and I were getting ready to paint little brothers room, and it’s a timeless moments like this that will remind us how life once was.

Although I have a planned maternity photo shoot for Jodi, this is the true photo that tells the story and shows Mom’s true commitment and prep before all the fun. The digital B&W process that I used in this picture I call Agfa 111, and it’s named after my favorite archival fiber based paper which has been discontinued years ago. When combined it with Rodinal developer at a high ratio it produced rich blacks and an unbelievable tonal range which I couldn’t live without. This was the only paper available with a hint of warm under tone, this is why I apply this treatment.
