All about the Belly - Baby Bump Silhouette

Mom really didn't many portraits with her face showing. I think this turned out quite well. It may be my favorite from the session.

 

Technical stuff:

 

Lighting: 1 Alien Bee b800 behind mom aimed at her belly;

1 Alien Bee b800 with 2x3 softbox -camera left

 

Props: 1 paper umbrella from Hobby Lobby -$2 on sale :) Just make sure mom holds the umbrella really close to her or the stick will create a shadow too.

 

...And yes, I did use both pse7 and cs4 to process. I have a good grasp on pse, but I am just beginning to learn cs4. There seems to be a steep learning curve to conquer.
