    Really nice work. Amazing really.

    I love the colors and the high key light.

    Thanks for sharing!

    The images are very good.

    When I look at them in a dark room on a calibrated monitor I get so much white from the mattes/frames you have around the images it is hard for me to visually process the colors and range. Printed on paper I'm not going to have to adjust my eyes as I am on a monitor.

    Is the shirt better on the first or second pic?

    or is this one better:

    I really like your images but I'm having a difficult time seeing them.

    (BTW: the shirt image is the same in both pics above.)
    Cheers!

    These are simply wonderful. The lighting - nice, 3-dimensional, well done. I'm not a big fan of high-key work, but I think it works very nicely with this little one. It's clear to me why the parents came back to you for the 1yr anniversary shoot!thumb.gifclap

    These are...each and every one...extraordinary. Just beautiful. You said that you had the pleasure to do this (and it shows in your work that you loved it), but I think that this family is lucky to have you on retainer!!

    Just stunning. The compositions, processing, depth of focus...everything is perfect.

    Thank you, thank you thank you everybody! iloveyou.gif

    Yes, I really enjoyed shooting those photos, she's just the most gorgeous little girl! Can't wait to see her growing ... :D

    Haha, yes the parents were quite happy with them. I sent them a little teaser before I gave them the CD, and I met mom on the street the day after and she had the picture that I sent her printed out in wallet form because she loved it so much wings.gif

    I do have to say though, I wish I would have a room like that (the room where I shot the photos). I don't have a studio (well, I have parts of it), so I just visited the family & shot the photos in the baby room .... the room get's reflected light from an other (bright) building, so I didn't even use my flash ....

    Davidweaver: I understand your critique. However I always had the feeling that black backgrounds swallow the colors. Yes, I think you can see the dark t-shirt better on the black background, however if you have a light colored photo, it will disappear on a black background (that's at least my opinion ...). Thanks for your comment!

    Thanks again! clap.gif

    They are all beautiful! My favorite is #5 because of the way you layed it out! The white background I think works very well on this series.
    Were the parents in the room while you shot? Getting ready to do a similar shoot for my newphew's first birthday.

    Thanks Evoryware! :D No, the parents weren't in the room. In the very end the nanny joined us for some photos ...

    Oh, good luck with your nephew! thumb.gif I guess in that age I wouldn't worry about posing him too much, just shoot some series of "action" photos to show his character & different smiles. I had some kids in that age the past few months, and all the parents really enjoyed seeing the different smiles.

    Enjoy iloveyou.gif

    Just one opinion: I like the white on white look.
