 I was doing a photo shoot for a friend of her beautiful 3 month old daughter and thought it would be fun to try and capture something she could use for a Christmas card.
Lighting was a nice big window to the left and an umbrella light in front off to the right set just a little higher than my subject.
Editing in Picture it, adjusted contrast, brightness and color saturation, all higher.cropped,and save for web.
Thanks for any advice, I love taking pictures of children (mostly my own two little ones) and people. I have started to have friends and their friends ask for my services. Which is so exciting and a bit scary!!

Very cute photo, and lovely 'celestial' looking whites with curtain behind. The whites in front look a little blown, though, and detract from face. 6.

just a little on the soft focus side...I wanted to see some sharpness somewhere but it looks out of focus or something...cute baby and nice pose in any case

I'm sure this photo will find its way into lots of albums and frames as it's a great challenge entry, portrait and keepsake -- one of my ribbon picks
