Hey All,


I had my 1st Newborn Portrait session today. I thought it went pretty well but it was much more challenging than I anticipated. This baby was just over one week old and I was expecting him to be asleep for most of the shoot but he rarely had his eyes closed! Anway, I'm hoping the get some advice from some of the more seasoned portrait photographers out there. Specifically I am looking for tips on:
  • Posing
  • Props
  • Lighting
  • Post Processing



Below is a few captures from today's shoot


All taken with Canon EOS 5D Mark II &EF24-70mm f/2.8L USM
