Please Judge me....

Ok so I need your help..... I have had a change in my life, a new road, a new ambition. Since June 1st I have been heart broken for a family. I just can't get them out of my head!!!! They lost there baby boy Chase Patric Taylor a perfect 39 week gestation baby boy. He didn't make because of a cord accident. I have just been sick feeling that I need to do something, I just wanted to take there pain away. But I realized I just want to be there to maybe give a little comfort to anyone who has gone through this.. or will go though this....


So here is my goal... I bought a SLR camera in which I have been practicing photography. I will have a photography site that is in the works called Chasing Angels Photography (in honor of Chase) He has help me become who I need to become!!!! Thank you Chase!!!!
This is were I need your Help, I need you to judge my pictures and pick your 5 favorites (you may critique them). Then I will turn in the top 3 to Now I lay me down to sleep (a non profit organization that takes pictures of stillborns to 2 years of age). http://www.nowilaymedowntosleep.org/

Thank YOU Jen! I love getting my kids pictures taken and you did awesome!! You are such a sweet heart and I love you so much!

1,4,7,& 8 are my favorites! I think 7 is a little bright though, but with some lighting touch ups it would be perfect!

So, I chose 2, 4, 6, 7, and 20. I agree on the one that is a little overexposed but overall it's still beautiful.

Jen
What an amazing thing to do for others going through such a heartbreaking loss. We had a photographer that the hospital sent in to take pictures of our sweet angel. They are some of the most prized possessions I will ever have. If you would ever want to I'd be happy to share them with you.

I also have a couple sites that might be helpful too.
All the pictures you have taken are beautiful!
