    Newborn Photography Tips | How To Get a Black Background

    © 2013 Wazari Wazir | My Daughter Arianna | 50 mm | ISO 200 | 1/80 | F/2.8 This is among my favourite pose for my little baby, I’ve done similar pose for my my sons HaiQal and Raphael when they were few weeks old and this time it’s for my daughter Arianna. A lot of my friends had asked me on how I did this photograph, actually it was pretty simply, you don’t need expensive studio lighting, you don’t even need a flash because I’m using a natural late afternoon light here.

    Photoshop Editing | Before and After Photoshop Toning Effects

    © 2013 Wazari Wazir | Original RAW Photograph | Just Convert to Jpeg © 2013 Wazari Wazir | After Simple Tone Curves Adjustment In my Photoshop Toning Effects II eBook, I’ve mention that different picture will yield different result even though you applied the same tone curves effect in Photoshop.

    Newborn Photography | Baby Bath

    © 2013 Wazari Wazir | Arianna | Baby Bath We don’t have any fancy bath tube to begin with just normal ordinary plastic basin to bath our baby.

Most babies will cry during bathing time,…
