This sweety was in her mother's lap during a baby shower I attended. I kept trying to get the right shot.
Not sure all of the editing, as I get lost in it, but I did do some work in LucisArt and virtual photographer and applied a duochrome using xero graphics which is free. awpollard first told us about it when he used their soft vignette. I also did a gaussian layer in reduced opacity soft light mode.
I then "hand painted her cheeks, face and arms and did some burn and sharpen on her eyes. This just goes to show that I can't get a great result using basic editing. ROFL
That is one of the coolest baby photos I've ever seen. It's so atypical with that dramatic background in sepias. And what a perfect composition. Jeeeeez, I adore those chubby little arms.
I bet the baby's mom is going ape over this photo!
i think you got the right shot !! .. love those little dimpled hands in the mouth and how it looks like she's looking at something really interesting .. love your basic editing !!!!! :)
When I look at this photo, I just realised that I never made a digital photo of a baby (but lots of analog). Looks very nice, but perhaps a little soft. I like the light.
