I shot all my children as infants many years ago. If memory serves me correctly, I never used a flash. I think I used a fast normal lens with Tri-X and plenty of window light. A reflector to bounce back some of the light would be a plus. For transparencies, I'd use Provia 400F. For color neg, I'd use Portra 400VC rated at ISO 320. Paul
