Fun with a Macro Lens

Lately I've been pulling out all of my old manual-focus lenses and working them back in to my shooting. As it turns out, I like them better than my hot new zooms. These old things are like tanks–huge and heavy. But they also have just beautiful glass and make some really nice images.

I feel like most photographers today wouldn't know what to do if I gave them a full manual camera and told them to go shoot. Sometimes I think I rely too much on the technology. Lately I want to get back to my roots. All manual, all the time. That's how I shot all of these flower images. Tell me what you think.

Kate & James got MARRIED

This is a slideshow of my most recent wedding in Jackson, TN. Kate and James are such a super cool couple with really fun families. This was one of the most fun weddings I have ever been to. Be sure to check out their entire set of pics in the previews section of my site.

A Big Girl Haircut

As promised, here are the images from Sarah’s first “big girl” haircut. My favorites are the ones with the lolly-pop. No matter how hard she tries to be big, I think she secretly wants to remain small.

I love you, Bear.

Easter Babies

Jack and Sarah spent the weekend with us for Easter. They are getting so big. On friday I took Sarah to have her hair cut for the first time in a nice salon. I'll have pics to share of that event later this week, but you can already tell from these images that she looks fantastic. Special thanks to Jordan for helping the kids with their Easter outfits. She's fast becoming their own stylist.

God, I love these babies!

Kevin Barre Photography Version 3.0

Woohoo! It's been a long time in the making, but I went live today with version 3.0 of my web site, which includes my all-new super-deluxe now-we're-cookin'-with-gas logo. You can see it on the top of this page.

I've spent the majority of the last month on the upgrade, so the blog updates have kinda suffered. Rest assured, there are some big updates coming. We're back into wedding season and I have been shooting a ton, so keep checking back for updated images.
