Christmas 2020 Mini Sessions

CHRISTMAS MINIS 2020

It is with absolute delight that I present to you some of my 2020 Christmas Minis Families!

It's my first Mini Session and to be honest I was nervous as I have never done so many sessions and families in one day. BUT as soon as the first family came, we had so much fun! It was amazing to see families all dressed in their Christmas best with the biggest smile ever! It was truly the most fun we had in the studio. There was so much love and joy going around. We couldn't stop laughing and smiling. It was the BEST weekend ever!

Can't wait to do this again for 2021!

Before and After

We all see the same things but how we interpret these things (along with a knowledgeable, intentional approach on light, composition, colour and post processing) makes us different and unique.

- EF 35mm f/1.4L USM

~ Baby on a Swing ~

Baby on a swing portraits are achieved by compositing two (sometimes more) images together. Baby was on a safe level, with a spotter nearby for added safety. In my studio, baby's safety is top priority, always.

~ New York Workshop ~

This was shot at my New York workshop where studio is obviously not my studio, hence the light is different. But because I use the same colour tones as I use in my studio, the resulting image is consistent to the images I take back inAustralia. Consistency is key in establishing your style and brand.

~ Baby in a Cloud ~

Specs - Canon 5D Mark III, Canon EF35 F1.4L
1/200 sec; f/2.2; ISO 400
 

~Baby boy on dark wood~

~ Baby on a Nest ~

Camera - Canon 5D Mark III
Lens - Canon EF 35mm f/1.4 L USM
Light Source - Window Light
Shooting Specs - 1/200 sec; f/2.8; ISO 400
Edited in Lightroom and Photoshop

~lack of natural light~

The biggest dilemma with natural light is how sunlight varies depending on the season, location, time of day and weather. This was shot on a particularly dark day, there was no sun and the clouds were dark. It seemed like 5pm in the studio. I have to crank my ISO to 1250 which was way higher than my normal 200-400.

~ Baby on a Flokati ~
