What a privilege to be part of the new life Ravae Smith was brining in to the world: Lily.  Lily, her mother Ravae and her grandmother Carmen stopped by my basement studio to record the last of Ravae’s pregnancy.  A golden glow and back-lit lighting helped with the effect.

North Dakota’s spring is full of new life, from the cattle pastures to the budding trees. How much more significant is it to see what is about to become one more head counted in North Dakota’s population.

Ravae works great with the camera and I hope to do another shoot with her now that she’s back to life as it once was.
