Hey everyone, my first post with real pictures. :wink I was the second-shooter for newborn twin boys--ten days old! I was super excited for the opportunity and learned a ton. GREAT time! I always, always appreciate CC! The skin tones were a nightmare with these guys. Jaundice+Newborn Red, Oh my!

Taken with my Nikon D90, and either my 17-55 or my 50mm

    Thank you! #3 is my favorite, only b/c it was a "candid" shot between poses. They were just laying like that, as content as could be! iloveyou.gif

    Ah, it was a marathon, Laughing.gif! Basically three layers: reduced the reds from the midtones and highlights in levels, reduced magenta in a color balance layer, and removed red/yellow from a hue/saturation layer. In some of the pics I had to do a color balance layer for each baby alone b/c one leaned more toward the yellow side and the other more toward the red side. Glad to hear you guys think the result is nice! :-)

    Adorable set! I love #2 and #3 as well. I love how #2 really shows how 'identical' they are. It's like seeing double! Treasures, to be sure. iloveyou.gif
