Please put me on your mailing list — My sons are in their 40′s but photographing grandchildren is much more fun anyway. I hope somewhere you will share how you achieve the extraordinary quality of the light. It makes the excellent photos really memorable.
Hi Rachel, I so enjoy your photography, and your blog with the thoughts of your day. I’ve probably told you this already on flickr as nfoto, but I am a twin, and find the twin parenting talk very interesting! It sure is fun from the child’s side, good to see the parent’s side, too!
I have an iPhone, no laptop at the moment. So, if I’m out with the camera I’d probably like a hard copy of your eBook “Click”. Do you have one, and/or how well would it come thru on an iPhone screen? At some point I thought you had a discount deal for pre-orders or the printed version, but I don’t seem to be finding it. Also, if you have a mailing list, please put me on it.
It depends on your camera, but if you are on a budget and have a digital sensor on your camera (versus full frame) get the Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 lens. It is sharp and light and has a non-variable widest aperture. You will also be able to change your focal length (versus being stuck with a prime lens) for getting variety in your images.

What’s a great starting out lens for Canon if you want to get into children’s portraits?
