Photography- using climbing gear for props
Posted: Fri Oct 29, 2010 7:06 pmSo I am expecting my second child in the next few weeks. Looking at my profile pic you can tell I love to take my kids outdoors 
(seriously, my almost 4 year old daughter wants to go winter camping this year... but I digress).
I am looking for fun ideas of photos to take with my new born son. Something that contrasts the beauty and peace of a newborn and the challenges of life.
My current working idea is to put him in my overboot which is strapped to a crampon. The question is, do I go BD Sabertooths or Grivel Rambos?
What about some other ideas (that the wife will or will not approve of). I am just trying to get the creative concepts going now that we are down to the wire.
here was the final with my daughter:
We were using the Miracle Blanket to swaddle her when she slept. I thought, "I bet I know something else that would work and there is no way she is going to get out of it":
The latter is what I am thinking for the new baby boy.
All ideas welcome and please share any photos you might have!
