My new camera arrived today! It’s a Canon 5D Mark II, and it’s beautiful. I’ve known for a while that it was going to be the camera that I would move to but I wasn’t sure when I was going to get it. The timing worked out for me to order it last week and it arrived today. I try to buy things to fill a need rather than just to have them. I’ve had my 20D, now relegated to backup duty, for 4 years and am closing in on 30,000 frames shot with it. The step up to the 5D was really starting to be necessary. I’ve recently been noticing some of the technical limitations of the 20D more and am looking forward to finding out all the 5D can do.

P was excited to be my first subject so this is IMG_0001 shot with my new camera. The first of tens of thousands. I also grabbed a few shots of my gorgeous wife Sherrie. T didn’t get a session today because he was sleeping both of the times I had the camera out.
