Today I worked the ASMP booth at the Michigan PPM (photography) expo.

My job: Encourage people to sign the ASMP email list.

My tactic: Cute 4 year old Chinese girl.

People with cameras can not resist such a great photo opportunity.

Tomorrow morning I’m speaking at the event. Ava will not be there with me because then she would steal the show.

I’m the luckiest photographer in the world because I have a great subject on a moments notice.

I used my 135 portrait lens. The light is from a lamp in my home.  The effect is based on  lowering the saturation in the photograph.

I love my family.  My wife and daughters.  My youngest Ava (4) has my heart wrapped up in little knots and is my first image during this long project creating 365 images.  Many photographs created and one displayed each day of the year.

I shot this using my 5D 100 2.8 Macro. It was taken in our living room with afternoon winter window light.  I planned on it being a Black and white photograph, but changed my mind while editing.
