getting along with newborns....

23 November 2011
Mohammadpur, Dhaka, Bangladesh

its been a while that I had been able to write a blog.... had been busy like hell.... the new business effort of ours has kept us on our toes.... we had received lots of responses from our friends.... and they extended their helping hands to spread the words.... we're really indebted to all those....

our newborn photography efforts have brought us a big audience within a short time.... we don't want to boast, but we haven't come across such efforts in Bangladesh so far.... anyway, this is just the start and there are much much more coming up... we are getting calls on a regular basis from parents of babies of all ages.... a lot of them have lamented that their children have already passed the newborn age (up to 6 weeks).... but we must assure them that moments are never lost with babies as long as they stay babies.... and we are here to make sure that the moments are not lost....

we have learned many things with newborns as we work along.... hope to share those little bits and pieces of experience in more detail in coming blog posts.... newborns are a challenge to photograph, but also great fun.... their adorable appearances make any photography efforts worth it....

 

had not been able to write the technical stuff for some time..... so, just thought it won't be bad to share some of those, although not in a lot of details....  the first two pictures were done using a single softbox with a single YN-560.... if I'm not wrong, the first one was done with a Lastolite Ezybox 24" Hotshoe softbox and the next one was done with Westcott 28" Apollo softbox.... the third image was done with the above two softboxes combined.... I wanted a bathing in light for that image... so, although flat, the lighting was intentional...

 

the last four images were done using a single light source.... an Elinchrom Ranger RX + Simpex Pro 120cm x 50cm softbox.... I simply love this combination because of the control it gives...I've used several lenses for these images.... depending on their perspective, aperture requirement, convenience, and DoF, I've used an ultra-sharp Sigma 150mm Macro, cheap Nikkor 28-80mm and the superb Nikkor 50mm 1.4... in all of the cases, Elinchrom Skyport was the trigger for these strobist stuff....

please don't forget to watch our Newborn Photography Album in Facebook....

a lot lot more to come.... 

Saadi..... @11 days only!

04 November 2011
Mohammadpur, Dhaka, Bangladesh

such opportunities don't last for long..... I became a proud uncle of a lovely baby boy on 24th October... that the second child of my elder brother.... I didn't wanna lose the opportunity to snap this little angel before he became too big to be called a newborn.... babies don't remain babies for long.... so, time was of essence... he was just named Saadi.... and when we came to know that Saadi was coming straight to our place, we simply didn't wanna lose a moment.... it surely was one of the best days we had in recent times... not just with the camera, but with a lot of fun as well.... Saadi is the younger brother of Tabassum, my niece... and Tabassum is the long-time playing partner of Lamisa, my child.... though they don't get that much opportunity to play together....

 


Saadi was so adorable and kept so quiet for so long.... he gave us ample opportunities to take photos in several different setups.... his patience amazed us and made us happy.... by the time he woke up, we were basically done with our shoot, and trying on a bonus one....










this is a second attempt of ours to catch him in his nap.... we tried this once before already.... we went to Saadi's grandma's place on 31 October to steal some quick snaps.... but we weren't really happy with the results as he was not going into his deep sleep for even a moment.... this second attempt wiped off the earlier disappointments... but we still hope to catch another session with Saadi before he is no longer a newborn....







anyway, our idea was a to use some props to show how small the little champ was.... and to keep things simple, I kept the lighting setup fairly simple.... used two light here... used the "Lazy Light" for an overall fill and used a YN-560 + 24" Lastolite Ezybox Hotshoe softbox combination to remove any other shadows.... for the first six shots, I used a cheap 28-80mm lens for general convenience, and as I was also using a small aperture for a bit of depth.... for the last four images, I switched to a 50mm 1.4 lens to create a soft look with shallow DoF....





please excuse for the big watermarks.... we just don't want these images showing up in a commercial venture without our knowledge.... we had experienced bad things before quite a few times...

a lot more coming up....

just a follow-up.....

09 September 2011
Mirpur, Dhaka, Bangladesh

we did a previous session with this family last July..... this isn't just another family.... a very close one; indebted to them for life.... we tried to pay off some of that debt through a short photo session, trying to capture the emotions of an expecting mother..... and it was just a matter of time before the expecting mother's emotions were converted into a mother's emotions.... a couple of months made a real difference in the whole nature of relationship in that family.... it was now a newborn's family....

with the photo subjects changing, we thought of changing the setup as well.... but thinking of the stance of the family from the progressiveness point of view, we decided to stay on the conservative side; not experimenting too much... we kept things simple and mostly straight forward....

we decided to make some exclusive portraits of the Nuzhat, the baby, before taking other photos.... at 24 days, Nuzhat had nothing more to do than to sleep most of the day.... she had a bit of fever during the day, which meant that she was crying most of the day.... as the parents told us, she just calmed down not too long before our arrival and had some badly needed sleep.... now, when we arrived, she was fresh and energetic... but we needed her to sleep to bring out those cool photos.... so, we put all our efforts to put her to sleep again!.... and we were successful.... that said, we completed the job as quickly as possible... used to lights.... one Lastolite 24" Ezybox Hotshoe softbox aimed at a while fabric hanging from the window.... this achieved a complete white backdrop.... a 28" Westcott Apollo softbox acted as the main light.... used a Sigma 150mm macro lens to flatten perspective within the confined room....








Nuzhat had her meal before we could shoot again... and for the shoot with her mom, we used the Apollo as the main light and used the Lastolite as a hair light....





for the last shoot of the day, with the parents, we used one light, the Apollo only.... and used a 34" collapsible reflector from the other side to cut some shadows.....



well, that was a much shorter session than the previous one we did couple of months back.... less complicated.... quick and dirty!

a lot more to come soon enough.....
