Bump PhotosWith our bub just about imminent now, Mrs Losfp thought it would be a good idea to harrass me to take some photos of the bump before it was gone - Great idea too, as I am pretty pleased with the results and I wouldn't have gotten off my bum to capture the memories unless pushed
What do you think? There are some things I noticed when PPing the shots that I possibly could do a bit better next time - positioning the lights so that I got more light on MY face, and an extra hair light wouldn't have gone astray. The setup: Done in our garage, which serves primarily as our home theatre room so had black velvety curtains all round that came in useful as impromptu background. A bit cramped for space though - there was only 3 metres between the wall directly behind my back and the wall directly behind HER back. Though because of the black velveteen, you couldn't see the shadows. D300, Nikkor 17-55. One SB-800 low on the left as the key light, shooting through a white brolly and triggered by pocket wizards. Another SB-800 high on the right as light fill, again with the brolly and pocket wizard. The second was a little tougher as I had to set the timer, then quickly walk over and hope I was roughly in a decent pose. This was all about the shape of the belly so I didn't worry too much about losing half the photo in shadow.
Re: Bump Photosyour lucky she wants a pic .. most don't.
personally i think it would be better with bare skin. the first one seems to have better lighting Shane

Re: Bump PhotosI think the first is the better of the two and the PP has been done well. I'd like it more if her head was turned slightly towards the camera, the glancing downwards is great and give a reflective feel, just more towards the camera please.
