Baby A

I find I'm struggling with colours that work best. Need some critique on these - thanks.

1.

great series .... #2 is my favorite! The pink and grey really complement each other well.

Please share how you got that "look." Is it because of the L glass, the full frame, flash? All of the above? I don't know how to describe it. I've seen lots of photos that have this same pro finished look to them. These are great.

Oh my they are just absolutely utterly GORGEOUS!!!!!!

Well thanks everyone. I was seriously struggling with updating my site with these shots...I just wasn't sure.

These were shot with the 5D Mark II, alien bee 400 at 1/16th in a large soft box to camera left and using the 70-200 mm f2.8 IS - top shot using the 24-70 mm f/2.8.

I shot lots of grey cards and tried processing in Aperture 3 and Lightroom 4....comparing both and keeping the Lightroom 4 edits. I find the clarity slider an absolute must with babies. I also had to do some edits in CS5 for the littles red spots.

Here are a couple of before shots:

With a subject that cute, it's hard to go wrong. These are excellent.
