Most people think that newborn photography is easy as babies don’t really move, they just sleep, eat, poop, and cry a lot. Newborns can be difficult to photograph as they change expressions so quickly, from that gorgeous, angelic face to an almighty crying fit in a split second due to an upset tummy.
What sleep deprived Mum has the energy to play photographer, let alone remember how to use camera settings or know where to set up a place for the best available natural light? If you had a difficult birth and require recovery time, the last thing you’ll want to worry about is taking newborn photos of your baby.
Newborn photography is all about capturing how tiny your baby is and photographing all the tiny features that will grow and change so quickly. These are photos that you will cherish forever, not just random snapshots that could be out of focus, over exposed, blurry movement, etc. A professional newborn photographer will know just how to capture your baby and take away all that stress. Not only that, but they should be well trained in how to safely handle your baby, settle your baby and gently place them in different poses to create a gallery with lots of beautiful photos.
Let me do this for you, where you can relax and also be included in the session with your baby. You just have to have enough energy to shower and actually be in the photos to capture those fleeting newborn days. It’s all the emotions, those beautiful moments of you holding your baby mesmerized by this little human you created.
If you’re expecting, think about booking your newborn session so you don’t have to worry about it after the baby arrives.
I had the great pleasure of being asked back to photograph this family’s third child, a baby girl. Congratulations, she’s beautiful!
