I've been lucky enough to follow Linel and Matt through their engagement, their wedding, their pregnancy, capture photos of their newborn and now I had the pleasure of doing her 6 month photos. I LOVE 6 months! They are so awesome at 6 months!!!! Did I mention I LOVE 6 months??? :)
I am going to post some info about the workflow and photo itself. Cutest model!!!
For most shots with kids I use my 50mm, much like the totally awesome Kelley Ryden. I LOVE her stuff. The 50mm is easy on the wallet. You can get the 1.8 for about $100. I traded up for the 1.4 and the sharpness at 2.0 is amazingly more wonderful then the 1.8. They sell I 1.2 but I'd have to sell a child... a small one, but still a child. With kids I've found that keeping that shutter speed up is essential as they move like the dickens. Of course you want your ISO low for better quality. Here is a sample of the photo SOOC (straight out of camera, lol!) and with the adjustments made. I shoot in RAW so white balance is easily adjustable in post.
ISO200, 50mm 1.4 at f2.0, EV +1.3, 1/100 a bit too slow for awake children, but it worked. :) sb800 bounced manual (1/8 i think) + natural light fill.
