Mother and son

Strobist info:

 

Two (or was it three?) SB-80 DXs, with dome diffusers on them, behind the mother. She is in a small 4'x5' "hallway" that connects three different rooms. This 4x5 space was closed on three sides by doors and a wall, creating a light tent effect.

 

PP: This is actually five different photos, one of each leg, one of each person's head, and one of the mother's arms and torso. The infant photo was actually taken several months prior to the mother photo(s). All these photo elements were melded together with masks in PS. I warped the mother's torso to create a more upright and squared look to her back and shoulder. Several different adjustment layers created the coloring and added to the high key effect of my lighting. Also added lighting effects to the infant's head to help it look more like a part of the image.
