Behind The Lens
Location
I usually photograph newborn shoots at their home do to the convenience of having everything there and it gives mom the option to relax and not stress about what to bring. There was no plan to use the wall and her floor but it made the best backdrop.Time
Studio sessions don't really matter what time of day but this was done about 10am after a feeding.Lighting
2 inexpensive soft boxes that I use for the traveling studio.Equipment
I have since upgraded but this was shot with a canon xs and a kit lens. No tripod, I don't have time for those when dealing with children :)Inspiration
It was a little bit of mom's ideal off of Pinterest, plus my own flare and creativity.Editing
Yes this was processed with Paint the Moon Photo Actions. First with a All in one to adjust shadows and lighting and then and Soft B&W with a little toning.In my camera bag
NOW!!!! I have a Cannon 6D and a 24-105mm f/4.0LFeedback
Dealing with toddlers and babies are always hard. You need to make it sound like its the toddlers idea, always have mom right next to the children for safety reason and most of all you have to move fast.
