Mummy and Daughter Photo-Session

Two beautiful girls – Victoria and her little girl Milenochka!  It was a mummy and daughter session.  I love these sessions – mother’s love for her child is incredible – it is so tender and so strong!  It’s instinctual, unconditional and forever!

The session was a later afternoon one on a cloudy day.  We didn’t have much time the light was disappearing very fast but this is what we managed to do.  We photographed in a beautiful Alfred Nicholas Garden in Melbourne.  Gorgeous place – it has some sort of a magic appeal and feel.  I love photographing in unusual locations far from public places and man-created buildings.

I used my EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM for wider angle shots, however I used the Canon EF 70-200mm f/4.0 L USM Lens for most of the shoot.  Sometime I am lacking this little extra f stop on the F/4.0L howerever when photographing moving children or more than one person I prefer to go at least up to f4.
