New baby shots

I’ve been sitting on these shots for a little while now, I shot them just before Mothers day and Neil, baby’s dad, wanted to give prints to his wife and his mum as gifts. Now that that’s all out of the way I think I’m safe to share them here!

I was following up on a similar set of shots I’ve seen elsewhere on some american websites, I figured I could create my own interpretation of them and as Neil’s son was so new it seemed the perfect opportunity! They’re lit with a single flash in a softbox that’s bigger than baby, held just out of frame. There’s a reflector in there too giving a little shadow fill. It was a very simple setup and we were all done in about 45 minutes. I think that that was a good thing too, knowing all too well how you feel on all but no sleep whatsoever!
