Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken in my studio in Pembroke Pines Florida. I love working new parents and newborn babies.Time
This was taken mid-morning. I find that mornings are best when working with young children.Lighting
The baby was the focal point in this shot. I used 3 lights; main, fill and back light.Equipment
For this shot I used a Nikon D-3100 and 18-55 mm lens with studio lighting.Inspiration
I love the natural skin to skin shot with newborns. This Dad was in great shape, I liked the contrast between his large muscles and the tiny size of his son who was actually born several weeks early.Editing
The conversion to black and white gives this photo a certain drama. I always tweek highlights and shadows on all my photos.In my camera bag
There are always 2 cameras in my bag. Both Nikon, a D7100 and a D3100 along with a telephoto lens and several filters. Since I live in Florida, I always carry a purse size can of bug spray!!Feedback
Keep shooting and find an easy to use editing program. I used Pic Monkey for this one.
