I had the opportunity last week to photograph my new baby nephew while visiting my brother and family in Appleton, Wisconsin. Baby Rhys was three weeks old during this photo shoot and what a cute and growing young boy he is. We set up a mock studio in my brothers house using natural window light for all of the images. I did use some fill flash with my SB-800 to help compensate for light during the later hours of the day. We used a black backdrop and black sheets on the floor for the necessary shots. I love the way ambient light looks and prefer this method whenever possible.

Here’s an image I wanted to share because it doesn’t happen too often. During our photo shoot baby Rhys decided to take advantage of having his diaper off and fired a stream of pee over his head. The photo says it all.
