Default My Little Guys!
Hi PhotoCameler's! I've been going through threads all night and the quality of work is so wonderful here! Always can find something inspiring and educational here at the PhotoCamel!

Here are a couple of recent shots of my sweet little baby nephews. The first represents my new found interest in very intensely colored/ high contrast images. Found a photographers work that just rocked my world and have been trying to learn some of her techniques.
Not sure if I dare call the second one high key or not... but am trying to learn to better light white. Currenlty I only have two studio lights but two more have been ordered. Its a challenge to get the kind of flat lighting that I like for babies with only two lights and trying to achieve an all white background.
C/C always appreciated.

Probably just slipped off the page tooooo fast when it was originally posted. The first shot is really cute but the color somehow doesn't seem right to me?

I absolutely love the 2nd one.. of the baby though !

I agree with Rae. Number two is a winning shot. I absolutely love it.

These are really nice! I love #1 - if he's wearing a white t-shirt, though, the white balance is a bit off...

#2 is adorable. Maybe a little brightening and slightly increase the contrast to pop it a bit more?

Well done.

#1 nice overall but I think if you framed it a little over the ear it had more impact.
#2 VERY nice composition but I would suggest to try in PP levels on the blue channel and pul the middle slider down to between 90-95. See if you like that. The maybe add a little more pop to it with adding a slight contrast curve to it in luminance mode.
