 Sawyer, his dad and mom. This is my favorite shot of the year, even though I know it's not the type of shot likely to score exceptionally well.

Sawyer, his mom, dad, grandparents, great-grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins have been a huge help to me this year. I took thousands of shots of them, and was always encouraged to go with whatever I wanted to do. Thanks guys.

I love the touch of having two hands in the shot. I haven't seen this kind of shot done that way before. It really ties together the whole family. Great shot! 9

Nice lines and lighting. Love all the sense of purity, which could be perfect if done over without the diaper. 7.

A classic baby shot. the diaper sort of ruins it for me. Great b/w though!

lovely approach to a family picture - the background is a bit distracting with the wrinkles seeming to take a bit of attention away from the scene -maybe separating the three from the background a bit more may have been in order - also, the hand of the baby seems to be a bit blurry

A touch over exposed. I wish the baby's feet and hands were also in focus. Sweet, and I'm sure it means the world to the parents.
