My friends wanted me to take photos of their baby. I tried a few shots to check the lighting in the house. First, I did it with the ceiling light on, but it wasn't bright enough. The photos turned out a bit under exposed. Later, I tried with the internal camera flash, the effect was just too harsh (I did not have an external flash yet...).
It was noon and there was sunlight shinning into the house through the windows. So I opened the curtain and just used the sunlight through the windows. To get a proper expose photo of the baby, I had the baby sitting down facing the light with the xmas tree behind him.
I pushed the ISO up to 800 to let more ambient light in to my camera (and also to get a higher shutter speed) , and shot the baby with f1.8. The f-stop helped to create bokeh effect on the xmas tree deco, which made the baby and his smile (also bokeh - no teeth) stood out.
I can see his saliva dripping too~
