What to Remember and What Safeties to Use During Newborn Baby Photoshoot

Newly born babies are the fragile tiny tots coming right out of mother’s womb after a long period of
nine months. The maternity period through which the mother goes is the most crucial time period
where she endures endless pain and labor. But right after the delivery, the most memorable moment
for a mother is to carry her baby right in her arms, who even before his or her arrival has automatically
created a beautiful space inside mother’s heart. When a woman turns into a mother, it's the most
unforgettable and delightful moment not only for a mother but also for the whole of a family. They
want to capture the most precious moments of their parenthood when the little one holds their fingers
or open his eyes for the very first time.

Newborn photography is as complicated and complex both for the parents and for the photographer.
Parents who enter into the state of parenthood for the very first time are as nervous and strained as
the photographer. Choosing the right and feasible photographer who understands parents needs is
the first and foremost task to be undertaken in BABY PHOTOGRAPHY.

1.)Soft Clothes and Hygienic Place for the Shoot

Parents must always remember that the newborn baby photo session must take place in the home
only, as it's the most hygienic place to undertake a baby shoot. After a baby takes birth, hygiene is the
most essential part which should be taken into consideration in order to keep the toddler away from
unhygienic surroundings. During the shoot too,a toddler should be kept in a safe and hygienic place.
At the same time, he shall be covered with soft clothes only and not with shiny outfits which most
parents let their babies wear during the shoot.

2.)Use of Dim Lights and Creative Props During the Shoot

Newborn's eyes are the most sensitive part of their face. They are not able to look in a proper direction
as they are not equally aligned during their birth. Hence during the newborn photo session, the
setup and lights used by the photographer must be subtle and dim. Nowadays photographers use
unusual props to place the babies For example, they place the babies in a vessel or a tube which is
not at all healthy for their fragile skin. The point to wonder is that the parents too allow the
photographers for such unhealthier way of placing the tiny tots.

3). Use of Smartphones Instead of Cameras.

One can also use smartphones during baby photography instead of cameras as they do not have
many flashlights and other image effects which are too hot to handle for the babies. In smartphones,
one can use as many apps they want and apply filters to the images if one is not using any kind of
props which usually are unhealthy for the babies. One can add as many filters and effects on different
apps just to add a vibrant and alluring effect to the image.

4) Using Correct Pose to Hold the Toddler

Either the babies are laid down on the bed or to be carried around in the arms of the parents. They
must be carried with care and affection during the photo shoot. Some photographers don’t pay
attention to how to carry the toddler either because of time shortage. They must have patience and
endurance to hold the baby like a human being and not an object.

Newborn baby shoots require a lot of patience and knowledge on both sides whether its parents and
photographer. Both should be open to new and innovative ideas during the shoot, Which in turn is a
benefit for the photographer who allows himself to grow more professionally and personally.
