Megan Crown - Newborn & Child Photographer

While searching google for 'multiple photographers' I ran across a photographer named Megan Crown who photographs newborns and children.  Her first set named Home Twin Child Birth was very interesting.  It is a set of photos that show a woman's birth at home in a pool to her twin babies.  It shows a story line from first going into labor all the way to clean up and taking a group photo with her family, doctors, and nurses.  Megan Crown captured great emotion of the woman giving birth, she makes you feel as if you were there or can fell the pain for the woman giving birth.

International Photography Hall of Fame in St. Louis

I did not know St. Louis had a Photography Hall of Fame until finding a link to their page on facebook.  They currently have a exibit called St. Louis Shoots: Contemporary Street Photographers from St. Louis that looks very interesting.  I'll have to find some free time to take a visit there soon.

Butterfly house

Yesterday I took a trip to the butterfly house to knock out a portrait assignment and to capture butterflies of course.  There were still a lot of beautiful blue Morpho butterflies from March Morpho Mania last month and many other kinds of butterflies.  One butterfly decided it liked my camera and kept following me around!  This was the first time I got to try out my zoom lens and I enjoyed it.  When we first entered the area the high humidity caused my lens to fog but after a few minutes it became clear again!
