Ella

When I first started thinking about photography as a business; babies and children were the last subjects I had in mind.  McKinley-Rodgers Photography initially came into being under the name of Dogtales and Dreams when, inspired by the likes of Erin Vey, I was keen to tap into the dog-loving nature of the great British public.  I guess having my own fur babies as opposed to the human variety, played a part too; and I was unsure whether I had the passion for child photography.

It's funny sometimes how the thing you most resist turns out to be exactly what you are looking for. 

This month I had the joy of photographing Ella again. 
We first met when she was not quite a month old.  Gorgeous and tiny, she was a crumpled bundle of joy on her proud parents lap.



This time she greeted me with curious inspection, before eventually giving into my charms (or it could have been the bribe of a fluffy pink pig) and I fell in love. 









From not thinking about babies, it's all I can think about now.
More babies to photograph please!
