Amanda
March 31, 2007 by David Bergman
This month I photographed the women’s NCAA basketball tournament, shot boxing at Madison Square Garden, and made new portraits of the Pat McGee Band.
But my photo of the month is a little more close to home. My 3-year old daughter Amanda Grace was the lucky recipient of a blue lollipop after getting her hair cut and this was the result.
 
I used a toy lens called, appropriately, the “lensbaby” to give the photo a unique look. It’s a tilt/shift lens that keeps the center of the frame sharp while throwing the rest of the image out of focus.
The tongue, however, is no trick photography.
Pure Amanda.
