Hello Louise, great picture. Do you use any postproduction on your pictures? Any studio lights on this one?, love the light. Angela #3327560

The baby has mom's eyes and you've captured them both beautifully. The lighting and skin tones are perfect. I agree with Clark, great start!! Looking forward to much more. #3327575

Thanks Everyone ! What a great welcome.
Actually this is my daughter and new grandson Jack.
Angela, you asked if I did postproduction. Yes I use photoshop and basically use an action that softens skin tones. I had one large softbox to the right and one hairlight on the left of the frame. Still working on lighting though. Practice -Practice.
Thanks for the encouragement.
Louise
