Baby photography- posed newborn photo shoots
Newborn photography when the baby is posed and curled into positions whilst they are asleep is a specialist genre of photography. Whilst this pose looks fairly simple, it takes many years of training and practicing posing to ensure the baby is lit well, hands and feet are in good positions, ensuring baby is safe and warm at all times, circulation is not being cut off, and then of course gently editing out blotches, dry skin to create the beautiful newborn portrait you see here.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS FROM NEW PARENTS
WHAT SHOULD I BRING TO MY NEWBORN SHOOT?
When you book in you will receive a welcome guide which gives fantastic advice for you to read, it is based on my many years of photographing newborns and has a list of things for you to bring. Of course you are welcome to bring along personal items if a Grandparent has bought baby a teddy or someone has made something for baby. Obviously if bottle feeding bring extra!
WHAT HAPPENS IF MY BABY CRIES AND IS UNSETTLED?
This is something new parents frequently worry about. As I have photographed thousands of babies I can understand babies needs, and we allow plenty of time for cuddles and feeding. I often share my knowledge with new parents on winding techniques if asked and often am asked if I can come do the night shift or called a baby whisperer. One of the most important things if for parents to relax as babies pick up on stress and worry. So you can come along and just the heartmelting experience of seeing your beautiful baby posed and carefully handled by an expert at ensuring they are happy babies and their needs are met.
