Baby Boy
These are the type of moments that inspire me the most, the once happen never seen again type. This was shot with the lengendary nikkor 85mm f/1.4d prime lens on a D800. He is front lit by a large window making the light incredible soft and diffuse. I ended up shooting this at a pretty wonky angle so that had to be corrected (the pains of being on the floor on your knees can disorientate you!). Focus is on the upper eye which is slightly further away than the other but is better defined with eyelashes facing us. Shooting wide open helps to blur out the minor distractions in the distance but should not be used as a crutch, as a uncluttered background will always look better blurred than a cluttered one. Compositionally, this is a simple fill the frame shot.
