Trying New Things

I’ve never been one to try new things easily. I always order the same thing at restaurants and I’m characteristically not super adventurous. However, I absolutely love when I do try something new and it really pays off. That was the case with my session with Dalila this weekend. Dalila contacted me regarding some maternity photos and she wanted all indoor and primarily a studio look. I admitted to her I really hadn’t done any indoor / studio maternity shoots yet (only outdoor). Even though I have done numerous indoor / studio newborns I was still a little nervous to try maternity that way. But Dalila had confidence that we could get great shots and I think she was right. She and Michael made it very easy since they are such a beautiful couple. We started off with some around their house and then incorporated a variety of backdrops. Dalila loves black and white photos so Michael and Dalila – here is your sneak peek… I will post your gallery soon – Hope you like them so far.

This next image I had a little fun playing with. This gives you a good idea how you can change photos to have different looks. First a full color version with a little texture:

The next version is desaturated a bit but not all the way to black and white (no texture):

And now a black and white version:

Dalila’s dog Bailey was very into the photo shoot and ready for his turn to model. He was often sitting at Dalila’s feet trying to work him in the picture. I’m sure he was reminding everyone that he is baby #1! Isn’t he a cutie?
