Looks like the 'Gerber' kid after a spanking.

LMAO

i'm afraid that nobody unveiled the secrets of Jill ....
mmmm
help me please

I think it's going to be one of those things like Dave Hill- many attempts, but none spot on, and certainly the original artist isn't going to share. Otherwise it wouldn't be their unique style.

Beautiful shots!

Hardly disturbing really. Kids that age cry a lot. At least most of them do. It's part of being a kid and to have that photographed is a beautiful thing IMHO.

Something as simple as taking a toy away from a child that age can evoke a fit that would wake the dead. Some friends of mine went to a photographer that did that very thing because they wanted some pictures of their little girl crying for some shots similar to this. No biggie. Once the toy was returned it was like flipping a switch. No more tears and I'm sure within ten minutes the child had forgotten all about it. We shouldn't assume it was some cruelty that brought that response.

I know this was done a while ago but I wanted to say....excellent job with the lighting and post! It looks like one of a Jill Greenburg shot to me.....

Holly lighting! Well done!

I think you nailed it.

Love the processing on this!

Oh, and Great Job!

and to all the people wondering...im pretty sure she said she just gave them candy and then took it away - to make them cry

If that's how the Gerber baby responded to candy being taken away, he needed a spankin'!! LOL!!!

Love it!

Thanks for the comments everyone...
Kinda stumbled back on the thread and wanted to say thanks.
Nobody else give this light a shot? If you don't have the gear team up with another photographer.
