He came 2-weeks early and I hurt my neck during labor (bad muscle pulls), so finally getting some pictures done. Of course, having a newborn of my own gives me a chance to practice "newborn photography" that I can add to my portfolio (even though I'm not in business, LOL.) Just fun . . .

Saying that, I don't have a studio, so with the last few used my dining room and natural light. Again, I love to just show off my baby, but any feedback on the photography is appreciated -- I would love to do more newborn/baby projects in the future.

1. No fancy photography here -- just a shot my DH took of me and my 11 kids! Thought that would be fun to share (and I never realize how big our family actually is until I see a photo of us all -- wow.)

2. He had jaundice, so really yellow skin -- I had a hard time adjusting it in PP:

3. My daughter with her baby brother. (Again you can see the dramatic skin color differences)

My version of baby in the basket (with cute hat.) Taken in my dining room with natural light.

awww... he is precious! Congratulations! You are so lucky to have a "live in model"... I'm sure you won't have a hard time finding a good assistant to help you hold a reflector every now and again..

It is? Hmmm . . . Funny thing is, our last name is "Small." We are the Small family, LOL. How about the Small football team?

Thanks -- I love that one, too. I have little experience with more "studio"-type newborn shots and realize how tough they are to take! I'm glad I have someone to practice on, though.

Yes -- my oldest daughter was holding it for those shots.

Yes, 11 -- all me and DH. Thanks -- I like how that shot turned out, too. A little different (for me.)
