  Geogrous shot Kelly!! I love the soft texture of the skin and how their features pop out at you. Nice composition too. What an adorably baby... ;)

  I love the baby's expression! What kind of lighting did you use? How old is the baby? Just preparing for my sister's new arrival!

  Hi BD....In both photos you wrote me about I used natural light with a reflector to the side. I love using natural light I think it look better and it's very easy to use...freeing up time to focus on the baby...In the sleepy baby photo...I used a black velvet backdrop....I sewed pieces together to make the size that I wanted and I nailed it to the wall...very simple and inexpensive...you should take some pregnancy shots of your sister before she has the baby....let me know if you need anything else...Kelly

  Kelly,

I didn't even know they both were yours--I was just browsing through the category and commented on the ones I liked! Shows you you're good! When you say the reflector was off to the side, do you mean opposite of the baby or opposite of the mother? Thanks!

  the window is to the right...the reflector is to the left closest to the mom....the baby is around 3 months old....thanks for all of your nice compliments...things are going well so far...I've only been doing this for hire for about a year...still have soooo much to learn
