This weekend, I took my flash gear on location to shoot some baby photos for a friend of mine. Overall, I am quite happy with them. For the most part, they were taken using a shoot-through umbrella for diffusion, as well as manual flash power and aperture. A few use ceiling-bounced TTL flash, and others just natural light and a reflector.
As with the previous shots of my brother and tabletop objects, the linked image files have not been digitally manipulated.
At some point soon, I mean to experiment with shooting some backlit glass.

In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. In the fall of 2005, I began reading for an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford.
Outside school, I am very interested in photography, writing, and the outdoors. I am writing this blog to keep in touch with friends and family around the world, provide a more personal view of graduate student life in Oxford, and pass on some lessons I've learned here.

These are really good photos.
Not at all like the collaboration between Celine Dion and baby photographer Anne Geddes (http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd38/Helena_A79/Anne_geddes_71.jpg)
People will pay to have Anne Geddes take photos of Celine Dion & their baby. Very strange. Celine as the universal maternal figure…?
