I do not photograph babies often, but when my brother and sister-in-law asked me to photograph my nephew, of course I said yes. My sister-in-law is a big reader and wanted to incorporate books into the photos.
For this photo, I knew I didn’t need much for lighting or “the set”.
We used a white sheet for the backdrop, a coffee table and couch as the staging area and my lights consisted of a SB-800 with 2 reflectors and another SB-800 through a small softbox. Simple and effective.
I’m super excited to process the photos. They’re going to come out great!

While using those reflectors +Scott Wyden Kivowitz … .was the flash pointing towards the subject, or pointing up?
+Ricardo Williams The reflectors were for the background and bounce off the ceiling
Got it, will need to try that sometime!…… meaning a similar setup!
+Ricardo Williams Awesome!
can't wait to see them…is that a lumiquest middle softbox thingy???
I returned one to B&H 2 days ago…now I am curious!
+Stefan Diaz I think it's version 3, but I use it often for smaller subjects
