LOVE those, all of them! That's what my husband wanted to get our 4 year old son for christmas. I said no way, so he got a guitar instead. :P

These are awesome. I love the sippy cup in #4. Your lighting looks bang on in these. Care to share? I struggle with my white all the time.

Really nice. Some of them seem a litle tilted to the right. Maybe it is the position of the kid. Also wish light on the floor was more even.

They're cute, but they look like they could use a contrast boost. Nice job! Those would live at Grandma's house if it were me.

thanks again for the comments.

The lighting is a standard setup for shooting white.
2 lights rear each pointing at the background.
2 light each side at front one with large softbox as the main pointing allmost straight towards the centre of my shooting area the other higher up small softbox shooting down to centre.
as I only have a very small studio space I get some light bounce which helps to fill, the problem is that it can blow out the hair against background as I could do with moving the subjects more forward.
