Hi, some friends of mine are seeking a fine art children's photographer in the Nashville area. Thanks for any tips..

He does everything well - to put it mildly!

Here's his kids images:

Yeah, Mark's great, but he's a commercial photog. I don't think he does private commissions?

Sean, let me check around for you. I know a couple of children's photographers. ;)

thanks :)

that Mark Tucker loves his gaussian blur ... :)

Yes and but he shoots with a 85mm f1.2 Canon lens wide open mostly.

I like his Hasselblad reportage. Looks pretty hard with such a big piece of equipment. If I had to guess, its probably an F series with a 50mm lens and a prism....maybe a motor.
