Your images always inspire me to try new things, these are no different. It's hard to pick a favorite, however, the last one takes it by a hair. Ps your daughter is beautiful
You are one of my favourite photographers. It's wonderful to see you stretch yourself conceptually here.
How on Earth did you get the deer to cooperate in #1? My favourite is 5. Your daughter looks regal. You are so lucky to have cooperative family members!
Beautiful images. But does your daughter ever smile? I realize that's not the expression you're going for here. But in almost every photo of her (other posts), her expression is always somber. I'd like to see her smile just once. Beautiful girl---bet the smile is, too.

most wildlife are more interested in food than they are afraid of humans, and this is particularly true of deer. Throw some food down, and many will come right up to you. A lot of wildlife photographers will use food to bring the wildlife to them in the spot they want them to be.

Of course she does. Is this a real question? I have tons of pictures of her being 'natural' but generally speaking, when I'm doing a creative concept/photo shoot I go for serious looks. That is my preference.
Here you go. The elusive smile. Don't pass out in shock.

So true!! Heck, I will go up to a complete stranger if they're offering me good food.

Ha! Of course! It was rather late when I wrote that. More sleep! Less internet!
