This is Reid Ratcliffe, my neighbor. 3 months old.
Vivitar 285 HV fired into an octobox via PW's 1/16th power. White foam board opposite the flash. f8 with an 85 1.4 D lens, Nikon d200.
Used Bibble plugin called Tony to get the sepia tones.
Added some selective sharpening and increased the vignette in CS2. Sized for web and overall sharpened. This is actually an outtake as Mom hasn't proofed the session yet. I'll post more when I can.
I built a mini studio in my home and it's been great for solo portraits and small product stuff. I thought it would be a breeze with a baby. Well, they don't travel light. We had him on a small table with his mom no more than 12 inches away. It was very cramped and I lost several shots from the mom blocking the light or not being able to feather it. Babies are tough!
