Hi all!!!
My DS turned 1 last week and my parents want to have professional photos taken of him as his birthday present. My husband has a keen eye for photography, being an animator, so we want someone who has a "gift" and is a natural with the camera and taking candid shots. Any suggestions in the vicinity of Sherman Oaks would great. Thank you!!!

What can I do next?

R.,

Why not let your hubby take it! What a great memory it would be and I'm sure that your husband would have a blast. Picking your props and change of clothing is fun. Make sure your precious one has had a nap and is well fed. Even if you are taking him to a professional. Also, remember time is not on your side for a 1 year old and for the photographers time is precious when on a schedule. A photo setting is about 2o to 30 minutes not counting the time you will be the place. Which is about another 1 hr or 2. Once you see all that the photographer has taken you will come out with more than you need. Experienced mother of 4 and an x -Picture People Photographer.

I hope I helped,

Nancy

We used Philicia Endelman for my daughter's 3rd birthday, holiday photos and new baby announcement. Check out her website. She's located in Los Angeles but close enough to Sherman Oaks and she is GREAT at candid photos.
Good luck,

I have an 8-week old daughter and I used Felle Photography for the maternity and newborn photos. They are primarily black and white, although she uses tints/color in some of the photos as well. My husband and I were thrilled with the pictures - they are absolutely beautiful and we plan to use her again for future sessions. (She's also a lot of fun to work with - very friendly.) She is based out of Sherman Oaks. http://fellebabyphotography.com/

I really recommend Adi at Next Exit Photography. Great guy, great work. You don't say how much you want to spend, and they are a little pricy, but so worth it. They work out of West Lost Angeles, but they can travel. Check out their website, it's amazing. nextexitphotography.com
