We love to keep memories, especially of our little ones. It is important to get the best
moment click, and preserve in an appropriate manner; so that it can make you remember those
moments clearly. Here you will be learning some basic steps on how to create beautiful baby
photos, let’s start.
1. Setting up the surroundings:
The day time is the best for photographing your baby. Make sure that there is no obstruction
anywhere like furniture or anything else. Even the clothes of your baby should not have heavy
designed, graphics and tags that distract the attention from the baby itself; simple clothing is the
best. Make sure that the baby is properly fed, have taken rested and is not cranky in any way;
otherwise the whole photo shoot won’t be able to give you a single nice photo of your baby.
2. Avoid flashlight:
Even if you are shooting indoors, make sure that you don’t use the flashlight. The natural
look of the baby will not be seen properly in the photo. You can make way for the natural light
from Windows and that would be the best place for photographing your baby indoors. Outdoors
shooting should be done in the morning or late afternoon, where you don’t need a flashlight. Never
shoot at Peek hour, where the sun is at its best. If the shoot is at night, then it becomes compulsory
to use the flashlight.
3. Use different Angles:
Mostly we tend to photograph our baby from the straight angle, where the face is focused on;
but it is not compulsory to do so. You can take pictures from different angles, still keeping the
face in the spotlight. This way you will get the same picture with different angles, getting a lot of
variations. You can also keep your camera in burst or drive mode, to get continues clicks of your
baby; as they never stand still. This way, you may be lucky to get some great photograph of your
4. Adding an element of fun:
Your baby might be happy to shoot with his favorite toy that is completely OK; as it will add
an element to the photograph. You can also make him wear some accessories like cap, chain,
bracelet and other. But make sure that they should be simple, so that it won’t get all the attention
well photographing your baby.
After photo shoot, choose the best photos and frame it properly and hang it to your favorite
wall; so that whenever you see it, you remember your baby childhood.
