I usually try to have the light coming from the same end as their head, in this one that would be camera left, you get a little more separation of the head and the background. I generally stick with soft simple light on babies, and usually soften the skin a bit in post but keep it simple.

Apr 15, 2011 18:54 | #3 Thaqnk you so much for your feedback. Its greatly appreciated. I will check out that book. Dave.H wrote in post #12228575  #1 is always a classic pose.

I try to keep the camera at the same perspective as the child. Often times I'll put the baby in the basket/blanket up on a folding card table to make it easier to get that perspective (mom and/or dad positioned to pose/catch). I can't comment on color or exposure as this monitor I am on is terrible anyway so it's hard to say. But I think you're off to a good start. A GREAT book to checkout is Sleeping Beauties: Newborns in Dreamland _______________
