Most of my experience is of landscape photography so I haven't done much portraiture and none of babies. However with the new arrival in my family I was motivated to try and capture some special images. I bought a Sigma 50mm f1.4 Art specifically for the purpose and I must say I love it. I have learnt a few things, particularly that I need to use the central focus point on my Canon 6D at wide apertures as the other focus points just aren't accurate enough to nail the focus at this depth of field. Also reducing clarity in Lightroom is great for smoothing skin, although I have only applied it using the brush tool, to ensure the eyes stay sharp. I also haven't done much B&W in the past either, so this is new territory for me in more ways than one.
