Charlie & Violet Photography’s newborn studio has come a long way since the beginning of January! The new client waiting room is almost done and I wanted to share some beautiful photos with you! All that’s left is to put the finishing touches on it and it’ll be ready for many more babies and families. Don’t let the word “newborn” fool you, however. I see more than just squishy newborn. I also focus on maternity photos, baby photos, family photos, couple photos and more! I’m even dabbling in pet photography and some product shots as well. But for now, if you’re expecting, you’ll definitely want to get on my schedule soon. I’m booking out for 2020 already, so get in touch soon to get your session on the calendar :)
January 7, 2017 - Newborn Photos: Matte or Not?
It never fails... with a new year comes me exploring ways to grow in my craft. It inevitably includes looking more into a matte finish instead of such a refined look. There is something about the matte finish and raw image that I'm completely drawn to. The problem is, I don't think it looks great on all babies - hence the dilemma.
However, I am finding that as I craft new Lightroom presets, that I am able to design many that look great all around. I'm even thinking of selling a matte and pure LR collection this spring that will be offered on my website for photographers.
What's your preference? I'd love to hear. I think many people like a clean, crisp look and we matte lovers are few and far between. If you have a favorite, comment on this post and let me know. I'd love to hear:)
Until then, I'll be editing! xo Nicole
