Little babies are funny.

My girl's friend wanted some shots of her daughter so I took some for her. This was my first time using my Bee for people since I got it a few weeks back, so bare with me. The shots may seem a bit blown out, but they were good on my home monitor where I edited them. C&C please.

Strobist info:
Alien Bee B800
White shoot-through umbrella
Bounced off ceiling
Positioned to the right of camera
1/8th power

what a cutie!

Not bad overall.

However, you cut off the baby's hair in 3 shots and it looks wonky. So does the OOF hand in #1. And the double chin in #9 is not very flattering to the mom.

#3 and 5 are my favorites.

Yeah. Sometimes I don't mind cutting off the hair/part of the face. Surprisingly, the mom didn't mind that picture so she liked it. :lol:
