Hope everyone had a great weekend!!!
Of course I have an opinion on this ... I know, SHOCKER.
I like for almost all of my black and whites to show ... well, just that. Some blacks and some whites - not just shades of grey. For those 'desat' people, below is what you will get if you desaturate an image that comes straight out of camera (SOOC).
Now keep in mind that these images are all done for a 'glamour' effect.
I do hope that this gives you a better idea of what exactly I do on the 'back-end'.
Love this shot. Newborns cannot actually 'see' anything except 'blobs' for a month or so after birth (maybe longer ... it has been awhile since I've had one!), but this little guy seemed to have NO trouble looking right into the camera. It was definitely different. I think he's gonna grow up to be a model. He's already working the camera! Ha!
The new mom asked me to take this photo. She wanted to get a good perspective on his size. We used dad's hand. It has a very artistic feel to it. My opinion, of course.
The very proud big sister - who we all know can work a camera! She is so great ... no matter what she's doing, she is always aware of the camera.
Congratulations on the newest addition! He's an absolute angel!!!
(aren't they all at two weeks old???)
The boys were absolutely wonderful (as usual). They love the camera that's for sure! What hams!
Somewhere in all of the craziness surounding our shoot, I managed to get some very quiet shots of the boys. Love the moodiness of these next two. I used a single directional light to create dramatic shadows and then did a soft black and white conversion on them.
This next photo is definitely going on my website. Another thing that you may know about me is my love of the 'anonymous' photos. I guess I like the fact that so many people can relate to these types of images. They can see their own child in them in some way.
Thanks guys for a fun afternoon in the studio! We will definitely head out again in the spring for some fun outdoor shots.
I love the way the light is just 'kissing' the top of her head and her cheek. It is just beautiful.
Now I know of a lot of parents who only want their children to 'smile' and/or 'cheese' for the camera, but I love to capture all emotions. So, I just 'had' to throw this one in the mix!
And the new 'big sister'. She is so proud of her new baby sister!
