Had some 10-15 mins to try some shots tonight.

Couple of questions:

1. How to prop the baby? I tried regular pillow as well as boppy pillow but not luch luck. She will kind of sink into it after 1-2 shots.

2. The white sheet/blanket as a giant reflector. Do folks pp eyes to remove that big reflection?

I've used a breastfeeding pillow (C shaped) and tightly folded blankets to prop babies, but I know that a lot of people prefer to use beanbag chairs because there is more flexibility in shaping them. I have the baby at a 30 degree angle or so, so that they don't have to work so hard on holding themselves up.

I don't tend to PP out large eye reflections, because I'm not talented enough to do it without losing too much detail. I usually just clone it out if its something small, but I wouldn't be able to in this case.

I think its a pretty good shot!
