Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at my boutique portrait studio in saint paul, Minnesota.

Time

This was in the later afternoon, giving the baby enough time to fall asleep for the pose.

Lighting

The lighting is a strobe light place to the side so it falls over the subject. There is one light as I like to play with light and shadows.

Equipment

I used a nikon D7100 and If i remember correctly, a 24-70mm nikon len with 2.8

Inspiration

It was just really something I was playing around with. It wasnt the shot I was looking for, but saw her stick out her little tongue and I went yep there it is. The hand was perfectly placed already and the colors worked together so I captured more of a fun shot with her tongue.

Editing

Yes, it is post processed to touch up the skin and I gave a warmth to the photo.

In my camera bag

Nikon bodies, an embarrassing amount of lenses, always have my gatorade

Feedback

Rule number 1 for any newborn photographer, baby safety! Make sure you are performing every pose with baby's safety as the number one priority.
