As many of you are aware, photography is not my full-time job. Well today, I stayed home sick after having the worse migraine. I slept until about noon and have since been wondering what I should do. Since I'm a workaholic and don't seem to take advantage of my alone time (grrr), I decided to post a little bit of what truly goes on before and after a newborn photography session.
It's very difficult and time consuming to photograph any session, but a newborn photography session is very unique. Not only do I have to be patient, I must haul all of my props, ensure that the particular home has yummy natural lighting, and constantly remind mommy & daddy that they must remain patient with me even though baby may not want to cooperate. ;) I have some easy newborn photo sessions and some challenging ones. Besides my travel time, a newborn session may last anywhere from 1-3 hours and another 1-2 hours editing and posting on to a private gallery. Now let's not forget the additional time I need to order pictures, create an announcement, and package and deliver the actual photographs. There have been some rare occasions that if baby is not cooperating, I will come back and attempt to create fabulous memories for a second time (by the way, I definitely do not mind).
Due to the demand and time involved, I am now happy to announce that I am offering newborn photography sessions in my home. The package has changed for the best!
Here is a photograph of baby Lopez. Every single photograph that I edit is a personal favorite in many ways. This particular picture I absolutely LOVE! It's classic, chic, vintage, sophisticated, simple, elegant, and absolutely breath taking. As you can observe, the top picture is the RAW image. It has not been touched with any type of editing program. The bottom photograph has been completely edited. I have softened the skin (lightly), removed the shedding of the skin, cloned the blanket that didn't cover the complete image, added a vintage finish to the photograph, added a soft vignette, and sharpened the image! I can go on and on with technical terms, but have decided to write in words you will understand. Every single photograph I forward to you will be edited to my taste. It's time consuming, but the final image is an absolute beauty!
Lopez family, I'd like to congratulate you on your sweet bundle of joy. Thank you for being so patient with me and I truly appreciate your trust. This is by far the best gift auntie Lisset could have given you. Wishing you nothing but continued bliss and blessings!

Beautiful work. I love the picture. But, I think I personally like the raw image better. Again I love your photos. Great work:)
