Description

What could be more fun than having an outdoor bath in a bucket in the country! This little model just turned 1 year old last month and we wanted to create some special photo shoots for her and her mom. That first year flies by all too quickly! I tried something new for me, using a speedlight outdoors as a fill flash. I used a manual setting on my flash at 1/128. My camera settings were F5.6 1/60 iso 100 at 55mm with a tripod. When photographing young children I often get blur because I don't have enough light for a faster shutter speed, so perhaps this flash will be my 'new little friend'.
