Getting ready for the holidays! I don't have a lot of free time lately to do my own Christmas pictures so we did a quick set-up this year. Thank goodness Sophia was in a happy and cooperative mood for about 10 minutes while I tried to quickly get some Christmas pictures for our cards this year. Her hair may not be perfect, the light isn't perfect, white balance isn't perfect...but I was very pleased with how my first attempt with a xmas light background turned out!! And to actually get a smile here and there at this age...Awesome!! :)

Thank you!! :)

I don't have any fancy lighting just my external flash. I set everything up on my bed in my room and there is a big window to the right. Then I just bounced my speedlite up and behind me...that was it!

First of all, fantastic set!

Second, if that is all you used for lighting then for me, that makes them even more fantastic! I think these are exposed so well!

Top marks.

Dynamite, as always! Those eyelashes of hers are amazing, what a little doll you have there. Great job with these. It goes to show that you don't need a ton of gear, you just need to know what to do with the gear you have!
