  6. James Matthews

    As with the Natural Light Couples DVD this is another amazing release, I just wish I had noticed the 10% discount for a tweet or fb post before I purchased it :)

    I had a shoot coming up for a friend’s baby and was pretty nervous as I had never shot a baby before, this DVD showed me so many things I had never thought of or the youtube videos didn’t cover. Unfortunately the shoot was in terrible light and we had a very grumpy baby on set but I took what I learned from the course and produced some photos that my friends loved.

    I love that you get the RAW files and can follow along with the post session, that really helps drive home the techniques Pye uses for his processing style.

    Pye is such an easy person to listen to and explains everything really well. If you have even the slightest interest in newborn photography then you can’t go wrong with this set.

    I used to turn down all inquires for newborn portraits, referring them to all of my friends because I simply was scared of newborn photography! Crying babies, bendy arms and legs gave me nightmares and stressed me out to no end!

    After watching this workshop by SLR Lounge, I am a changed person! I now feel confident that I know exactly what to do during newborn sessions, in the planning, execution and post processing of newborn portraits. The information in these DVD’s are invaluable – it covers not only the best times for a newborn session, lighting, posing, props and even post processing and presets!

    It’s a comprehensive series that covers everything you need to know. I am happy that I am able to add new these into my portrait sessions especially since my brides are now all having babies!

  8. Barbara Okun

    I want it all! I only have LR4 and PS5.0 Can I still purchase it all?

  9. Dale Zimmermann

    Yet again the SLR Lounge Team have delivered a fantastic package. The presets and tutorials are excellent and well worth the money. Like the Lightroom Presets (which I use for EVERY photo) this is a must have for anyone editing those special moments for people to treasure. Keep it up guys!

  10. Chelsea Photo

    I love this workshop! Highly recommended for anyone wanting to get started in newborn photography. I watched these videos a few days before my first shoot of my newborn nephew and I’m very pleased with the results. I would not have been able to do it with out you guys! Thanks a bunch!

  11. Christopher

    Love this program. It’s truly the complete system and nothing short of a full solution. I have learned everything I need to know regarding photography for newborns. My favorite part of the workshop is the presets. I barely use photoshop now.

  12. Charles Photo Lancaster

    These are awesome. A perfect intro to newborn photography. I started in wedding and portraits and now I’m expanding into baby and newborn. It only made sense after making such good friends and clients from my wedding experiences.

    This DVD is very useful and thorough. It gives you all of the necessary advice to complete your baby shoots. It talks about safety, which is to me the most important part. It also teaches you how to use a reflector and window light. Posing is also crucial and props as well.
