Hi all,
I had two baby shoots scheduled last weekend (my first official infant shoots) and here are a few I liked.
One baby (the little girl) was 2.5 months and the little boy (4 months). I learned quite a bit, mostly "expect the unexpected" and have patience, lots of it and learn to prop them up as they tend to flop around a bit.
The little boy was a breeze, was in and out of there in 40 minutes flat and the processing was easy too. The little girl took more than twice as long and way longer to process. :dunno

    I like them!

    how do you get the colors in #5 and so on? Is it just a slight desaturation?

    #5 is black and white--so I"m guessing you mean the others right?

    I have a weird workflow, I dont' know that you would even call it a workflow.

    After initial tweaking, cropping, dodging etc. I then upload to smugmug and then I play with it further on picnik and I layer some of their presets to get that effect.

    Someday I will buy presets, but for now, I'm pretty happy with LR3 and the picnik combo.

    Thanks for commenting.

    I love #6 - it's my favorite of the bunch! The toning in #1 looks a little bit off to me somehow... it seems like it's on the border of intentional toning and funky WB. Great set overall!
