First of all I must say...if you can get to Keri Meyers Photography to do a workshop, do it! I learned so much, from posing, to calming the baby, to processing. She is a wealth of knowledge, and I'm so glad I was able to do this. We started out my mentor session with going over camera settings to capture the perfect SOOC. Let me tell you, this alone was worth it. It makes post processing so much easier and faster, just knowing how to get it right in camera.
We had an adorable 12 day old baby boy, who was such a dream. With his perfect little lips, and adorable face, who could not love this little man! Keri showed me all of her techniques to posing the perfect pose, and getting all the little details right. She makes it look so easy! I can't wait until my next solo newborn session to test out all the things I learned from Keri.
I also got all of Keri's actions, and they are also great. The "take the red out" action is spot on and speeds things up so much. I used her color pop action in some of the below shots and works great, and really love the end result.
This was such a great learning experience, as I am quite new to newborn photography this mentor session was just what I needed. You can check out her blog for info about getting signed up for a mentor session.
