Taking Photos of Your Newborn

After forty lengthy weeks of carrying your bundle of joy, your baby has arrived and now you’ve brought him home. You are likely eager to fill those empty baby-themed picture frames that you’ve collected over the last nine months or so, or perhaps that your friends and your loved ones have given you as gifts. Actually, you are probably hoping to fill several picture frames with photos of that adorable baby, proudly exhibiting every moment of his or her life, waking or sleeping.

Newborns can be tough to photograph since their attention span is undeveloped and their moods may change very quickly. The infant that is happy and smiling one moment may be squirming and crying the next. However, you don’t need to worry. You’ll find plenty of chances to take some great photos in the weeks (and months and years) that are to come. The suggestions that follow will help you to capture picture frame worthy moments (but aren’t they all?) with your baby with ease:

• Get used to your equipment. New mothers often buy a brand new camera right before their baby arrives. Be sure to read the handbook for your camera and get familiar with its settings even if it is not a recent purchase. Try out the camera, paying particular attention to the zoom and the wide angle. Be sure that your camera’s battery pack is charged to the max, and that you have a nice big sized memory card installed.

• Make your baby nice and cheerful. This should not be too difficult for just about any baby if it has had enough sleep, has a full tummy, and also has a dry diaper. Make sure that wherever you are taking the pictures is warm and comfy since a baby this young may get cold easily. It is important that you find some props to aid you with keeping the baby up like pillows, blankets, and other things that are nice and baby friendly and soft. If you have got another pair of hands to enable you to pose baby and keep him safe while you snap his picture, that’s all the better!

• Pick a location that is nice and bright for your baby’s photo session. Keep all background or props on the simple side, like a solid colored blanket. Clothe baby in simple clothing, because any bright colors or patterns can take the focus away from the true focus of the photo.

• Make the most of the ability to take many, many shots. The nicest thing about your digital camera is that you are able to take as many photos as you would like to and then take out the ones you want to, without having to be sparing with the photos you take. Always take the original pictures in color, and then if you want to change them to an antique tint or black and white afterwards then you can.

• Take plenty of candid shots without planning the shot. Who says a baby with fresh tears on his face and a sad mouth can’t make a pretty picture, worth displaying in a picture frame set on your desk? The most candid photographs oftentimes wind up being the best!
