Toddler Photoshoot

March 9th, 2010
  • Here are some photos from my last photoshoot. This little girl was a lot of fun, but very active :) Lighting was two strobes, set up in their livingroom with a backdrop & lens was 50mm and the occasional 100 macro. Used some of my props (chair and bench) and some that she had. The full shoot can be viewed HERE (http://stalleyphotography.morephotos.com/mp_client/pictures.asp?action=viewphotos&size=thumbnails&thumbpagenum=1&eventid=17266&categories=no&keywords2=no&groupid=0&bw=false&sep=false&ckw=false)

  • Thanks everyone, glad you enjoyed them. It was one of those shoots where I felt I hadn't gotten a lot of useable shots so it was nice to see the final product.


  • nice jobs. shooting young kids are fun.... but sometimes they can give you headaches. I should know when I do this full time daily.


  • Overall they look really good. Couple of little (and I mean LITTLE) things that I would fix:

    In that first one, it looks kind of orange-y. Also, I'd use the patch tool to smooth out the wrinkles ( at least the larger ones) in the background. It's one of the things our studio is picky on, and now it's all I see when I look at a backgrounded portrait. :)


  • Thanks all! And johnlo, I have two sons ages 5 & 3 and despite doing photography I have been unable to get a shot of them together that I really love :mrgreen:


  • Terrific photo's, you done caught her good ;) The lighting looks right on also.


  • Very cute! :D I really like the 3 you chose for the collage!


  • great expression on #3, but photoshop that third arm coming out of her elbow!


  • Thanks for the comments everyone. Her Mom was pretty happy with them, and Mom's are the toughest critic after the photographer ;). Raidar, thanks for pointint out the doll's arm, I didn't even see it. If her Mom likes that shot I'll do some PS work.


  • cute is as cute does...


  • The pictures are beautiful! Im not an expert but I磎 a MOM.

    I think that's one of the best compliments I've ever gotten! I'm a Mom as well and I tend to shoot what I love. Thanks for the reply!


  • Alison! youre SuperHero for me! i love the face expression of the little girl!(two last shots) - the truth is im not a big fan of the kid's shots myself, but these are really great!
    i know how hard is to take a good shot of a kid - all my attempts to this have finished more than tragically,ha ha - most of pics were blurred or kids have had strange faces there, ha ha - somehow they were faster than my 1/250 setting, and i couldnt make them still even for a sec!ha ha
    great shots!-:))))


  • good work Alison ... I'd definately be happy with those results :mrgreen:


  • Beautiful work.

    Very cute! :D I really like the 3 you chose for the collage!

  • OMG! How cute Alison! I love number four. My husband was looking over my shoulder when I saw it and we had one of those collective, "ahhhhhh" moments.


  • Very nice! Good range of expressions. Well done.
