childish child portraits is what I do. My wife calls me the big child at home, but I don't believe everything she says.
I like natural situations and light. I try to capture kids the way they are in their world on their terms.

childish David's B&W actions I have created these actions as a result of my extensive Black & White work.

"He has a true passion for children's portraiture and is always working to further develop and define his talents. What he has done until now is just wonderful - a body of work celebrating all that it means to be a child. We can only wait for the beauty and joys yet to come from his acuity and compassion."

"ok i will try to keep this brief.
the guy can take top notch photos. easy to see. his technical ability is enviable. especially by someone like me who finds it all such a hefty hike.
but mostly its how he takes the time to leave comments that really mean something. he has spurred me on and upwards on more than one occasion and to have someone like that give you a little cheer in the sidelines is priceless.
so thanks so much for your encouraging words and for sharing your amazing talent with us all.
kerry :)"18th March, 2007

Trish McCoy says:
"David your a good friend to have. Your work is amazing and always leaves me in awe. You are truly one of the great child photographers of our time. You capture children in such a pure manner. Each image draws you in as if your standing right there by the child watching them play while you shoot the picture. You are so good at capturing the beauty of a child. Your the only one so far that has captured my daughter as she truly is. Even me as her mom have a hard time capturing her. But she seemed to warm up to you and let you take the shots and that's a good thing. You inspire me so much. :) thanks for being a good friend."

"One thing I love about David...he's always willing to help somebody else. I've got a lot of silly little questions but he never makes me feel foolish and I know he'll always give me an answer I can understand. His work is strong and he's always true to his own style. I'd love to have him photograph my own kids someday. :)"

"I've had the wonderful pleasure of getting to know David this year! He's one of the most talented children's photographers I know...and with every new shot, he takes children's photography to a new level. His images are always unique and full of life. He stays true to his signature style. David is a helpful, kind, honest guy...so refreshing! I look forward to meeting him one day!"

Peta M says:
"David is an amazing photographer and such an asset to the photographic community. His visions are so beautiful and unique and he follows his own heart and style, rather than following the 'pack'. Every photo he creates has such a strong mood, be it fun, playful colour, or strong, dark bw.
David is one of the biggest assets I have come accross on the online photographic community. He is always there with constructive feedback and comments.
I am so glad to have 'met' David online, and to be priviledged to see his beautiful documentation of the lives of his kids he has so much love for!"7th May, 2006

©dinamarie originals says:
"David has been a photog friend of mine for awhile now and he is not only a spectacular photographer but a photographer with a heART. As you look at his work closely, you will notice by the interesting angles and perspectives, he really does get down on the kids levels and plays. He manages to capture honest moments that often get overlooked. He also takes the time to teach others the techniques or tips he has found to be helpful and I appreciate that. Thank you David, for the constant inspiration!"
