A visit from my brothers step daughter and her young baby, Emily, was the perfect excuse to drag out the new Bowens 400's and try some more studio stuff. I'm finding that with babies this young its difficult getting a decent pose of them on their own. Louisa did bring a V shaped cushion (normally used as a breast feeding support) which we were able to sit Emily in. This worked really well, especially as Emily was such a happy, smiley subject. We tried a few more shots with Emily lying on her tummy and lifting her head and these were probably my favourite shots on the day.
Louisa was pleased with the results and following my advice got some 10x8's printed up at Photographique in Bristol the following day. I've no hesitation in recommending these guys to anyone. They're no more expensive than most High St shops, provide good quality prints and Louisa herself said the service she received there was superb.
There's a few more examples from Saturdays shoot here: Emily Rees
