I was working in my prop room today, cleaning up a bit and making sure everything was in it’s proper place. As I was ‘working’ (who can even call it work when I enjoy doing it so much???), I realized how much I LOVE my prop room. I have been doing newborn photography for 9 years now (it will be 10 years in January 2018 woot!), and I have collected quite the assortment of beautiful colorful props. This is just one section of my prop room, where I keep some of the bean bag posing fabrics, flokati rugs, buckets and bucket stuffers. Don’t worry my neutral lovin’ friends and clients….the other side of my room has PLENTY of props for you too! This side just makes me SMILE. I hope you enjoy a little look inside my prop room. Maybe someday I’ll share a little bit more, but here is a look at my ‘happy place’.

We had an AWESOME time at the March/April 2017 Creative Captures Photography Workshop at Jennifer Nace’s studio in Waseca, MN!!! The models were fantastic, the students were energetic, kind, talented and fun.  And the weekend was full of learning, inspiration, creativity, and of course….working with COLOR!!!! We had fun photographing several handsome boys on day 1, working on several different poses and lighting techniques for newborns and children:

On day 2 we photographed girls, and they were all so sweet and cooperative!  We got to take lots of pictures and work on more posing and lighting.  We also covered editing, business, marketing,  client communication, session prep, cake smashes, set creation, color, and answered any and all questions!  Nothing is off limits at the workshop, Jennifer and I are open books!  🙂  Creative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classDSC_4907 900Creative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing classCreative Captures Photography Workshop | CARALEE CASE newborn baby infant posing class

In January I had an amazing opportunity to travel to Malaga Spain, and participate in the 1st edition of the Baby&Kid España conference. Spain is such a beautiful place, with even more beautiful people. Every one I met was so kind and welcoming and made me feel at home, even though I was 5,274 miles away from home. We had beautiful little models for the newborn workshop, and here are some of the fun images we captured:

My husband came to Malaga with me, and was a magnificent assistant, as well as the designated cell-phone-picture-taker while I was working.  🙂  And thanks to him, I have a few behind-the-scenes photos to share with you!  First, this is Antonio.  He volunteered his beautiful studio in Malaga for the newborn workshop and was an amazing host!  His studio was perfect, large and spacious, filled with beautiful artwork on the walls, and stocked with all the supplies, equipment and props that I could have ever needed to photograph 3 sweet models.  Idaho Falls, ID Newborn Infant Baby Photographer ~ Caralee Case photography workshop Spain
