You're so cute oh my goodness, can't always plan a baby shoot, babies need time for feeding, crying , sleeping, you have to kind of roll with the punches and adapt to what the situation is what the baby is doing, every day is different.
I am just gonna shut the windows here to block out some of the natural light since we are using strobe, I like some mix light though so I'm not gonna shut all the windows
like to keep the lighting natural looking, when I'm using strobe I use a big soft box to keep it uuuumh natural
I also think the strobe is uuumh a lot of fun for the baby to see it go off and there are babies that get scared by it and in that case you adapt and use natural light
prior when I had the temperature of the room a little warm for you because it's probably better for the baby and a happier baby is better for the props
so props are really a great part of expressing your vision, I'm constantly on the lookout for new backgrounds, new flooring, new things to put the baby in or on, I have a lot of knit pieces that i order specifically for the colors that i want and and I build the color pallet that i want in the photo shoot
i like to keep things natural especially when you are photographing a naked baby, everything is , you want everything to feel really natural
tend to stay away from bright pinks and bright blues it's screaming baby shoot, it starts to look cheap, for me personally the more simple the better.
photographing babies at six months is really fun for me because they are squishy and cute and they are paying attention to your smiling and your cheering and the noises that you are making capturing that is a lot of what I think is really exiting about this age
you don't always get a baby like the one we got today ,sometimes the baby is not in a great mood but I can say I've never had it where we didn't get the shot, there is always a way to get a shot that you want, awesome you're awesome wooow.
I usually try to start of softly you are new to the baby and you've got a camera and there are a lot of things going on, so i try to start a little bit softly just try to get to know the child , i think it is important not to scare them because once they are scared there i a long turn around till you come back and they are okay again
towards the end I'm totally cookie and everything is going crazy
things that make kids smile i think really is just being as positive as you can be and not worrying about what you look like what you sound like
The interesting thing about being a photographer is that you are not the parent you are somebody that the child probably hasn't seen a lot it's something new and exiting for the child so today I was using the Tamron 24-70 f2.8 and the 90mm macro, I like to use the macro for detailed and the 24-70 gives me a really good focal range to work with
He's great Done and Done. Once you feel like you have the shot that you want it's good to move on to different scenarios that you had planned because babies are not gonna last for hours and hours. If you start the shoot and everyone is trying to make the baby laugh it tends to be overwhelming I think the baby and I think the baby melts down more quickly than when you as a photographer starts off being the one to make him laugh and smile and then invite the parents to join in s the shoot gets further on, once we get to that point its a great time there's a great energy in the room and the bay can really sense that and its all smiles.
