Baby Katie Rockwell

< < back to today's photos

Baby Katie Rockwell
See my brother Ryan Rockwell's website, too!

Born 2:45:10 PM PDT, 28 May 2008, La Jolla, California.

8 pounds, 10.3 ounces (3,920g). 19-1/2" (50 cm).

The technical gobbledygook after each shot is the equipment I used for each photo. Many photographer friends ask.

All party photos today: Fuji X100. The photos that look too pink were because I set color balance to Red 2 as a first try, and discovered that the X100 is so good that I don't need to add any additional warming.

24 April 2011, Easter Sunday

We had an awesome Easter! Dada made sure that our yard was bunny-friendly all year long, meaning free all-you-can-eat grass and flowers, and we were well rewarded. Dada also goes out of his way to avoid bunnies on the road all year, as we know any of them could be THE Easter Bunny next year. There are more photos on Ryan's website. We had our best Easter haul ever this year.
