I’ve read from at least two or three professional photographers that it’s a good idea to take portraits in the bathtub. Not necessarily literally bathing – just surrounded by the white tile, the white tub and as much natural light as you can get. In my case, I actually had to let them bathe in order to keep them occupied to test this. I don’t know what it is, but I just love to see my babies all wet. Their fresh clean faces, their wet hair, the eyelashes all smooshed together. I love it! So, tonight I decided to attempt to get some pictures in the bathtub before sunset with natural light coming in the big window above the tub. These are four of my five favorites. I can’t put the fifth one on the blog, but suffice it to say it’s innocent and sweet and it will be framed and on display in the privacy of my bathroom.
All of these are ROOC. 1/30 to 1/60, f 5.6, 1600 ISO
Click on each individually to see them larger and much more clearly.
Gorgeous portraits, I love them all especially the last one. Too bad my bathroom has no windows and yellow porclain and awful light…
