Shooting babies is NOT easy! They won't stop moving and they pee on everything! But man are they cute! Here's a few shots of what I ended up with. I gleaned a few tips and poses from you guys on here. You guys are a huge help!

C&C welcomed!

In hindsight, I wish I used a larger DOF for this one. Next time I guess....

Thanks! Though I took the hands holding feet idea from someone on here... I forget which thread I saw it in, but I thought I'd try it out.

Thanks! He was wiggling alot at first, but after a minute of sitting on the arm he suddenly took interest in the gridded softbox I was using for this particular shot.
