Silhouette

Canon 40D * EF-24-105mm f/4.0L * ISO 100 * 1/200 second * f/9.0

About a week ago my sister-in-law came over for a maternity shoot.  She didn't want the normal shots of a belly that you always see so we came up with the idea above.  We used one of my daughters dress ups to create the lace silhouette.  K is holding it from the top and bottom.  We ended up picking this photo because K and I liked how her stomach is barely visible near the bottom of the photo.  Looking back I would have tried to keep the material off the skin more to avoid the dark shadows but all-in-all we were both pleased.  I'm planning removing the dark shadow at the top of the photo.  I will be posting more of my favorites this week as I get time to process them.

K delivered her baby six days later, a healthy six pound girl.  I'm excited to shoot her this weekend, I have a few creative lighting ideas I want to try.
