I really, really like this portrait of Jocelyn and her father, my nephew Brian. Jocelyn wasn’t posing, she was engaged and I managed to capture her at just the right moment. Patience? Luck? A combination of the two? Something else entirely? Doesn’t matter one bit. All that matters is the image.
Brian and his family live in Florida. Brian, Jocelyn, Brian’s son Tyler and Cathy, his fiance, came up for a visit a few weeks ago. We all got together at Erin’s home for a lovely family afternoon together. I have a few more photos that I’ll share another time (soon).
I was using my Nikon N8008s and 35mm f/2.0 AF lens with no flash. The film was Tri-X rated at ISO 1250 and souped in Diafine.
I love that he is intent on listening to what she has to say. This is a terrific capture, John.
Gracious bow. Thank you Red. I’m having too much fun for it to be legal. I drove to the park (Ceres) today and took a few pics. I only stayed for about 10 – 15 minutes but I got some exercise in.
You got snagged, but not before capturing the moment 🙂
Lovely B&W post!
That bent head holds a powerful expression.
It’s perfect. Doesn’t looked pushed at all. It speaks of the quiet moments that happen during a visit.
A precious moment captured.
Best whises.

Wonderful moment!
This is absolutely beautiful. Both of them are in the moment and intent.
beautiful candid portrait, lovely shadow and light on her sweet face.
Wonderful captured! And the photo suites black and white!
Love the bent head of the adult in contrast with the clear expression on the child’s face! A beautiful moment!
