baby sawyer | sprout photo

after having the privilege of being there for sawyer’s birth, I was so glad when his family brought him into the studio for an official newborn session.

AndrewSeptember 3, 2010 - 12:23 pm

The light is wonderful in these. All natural or any off camera lighting used?

kelliSeptember 4, 2010 - 10:47 am

Thanks for the comments!

Andrew, a little of both. :)

AndrewSeptember 4, 2010 - 1:32 pm

What sort of light setup do you use? I’m looking to do some more off camera flash and wonder what’s a good way to start. Already have one 580exII and a 25ft ettl cord (I’ll go wireless later). Can you recommend any light stands, umbrellas or soft boxes to start off with?
