Things You Need To Know About Baby Photography Melbourne

By Nora Jennings


The photographs of your baby will always remind you of his or her milestones. Ideally, you should have your newborn photographed 5 to 12 days after birth. During their first days, infants spend most of their time sleeping and they can curl up in appealing poses in a prop such as a bucket. After attaining the age of two weeks, they go through a period of rapid growth and they begin stretching their arms and legs.

You can photograph your baby yourself by just pointing the camera, getting the angle you want and shooting. However, it is appropriate to hire a professional photographer. By using the services of a professional who specializes in baby photography Melbourne residents can get high quality pictures of their infant. A professional can capture photos that have mood, create feeling and show texture.

Professional photographers also shoot photographs that engage the senses. Parents will always remember the facial expressions of their infant vividly. Many changes take place during the first years of the life of an infant. Professional photographers can help parents create visual memory books that immortalize the manner in which their child looked when he or she learned to sit, roll over, walk or crawl among other things.

You can create a multi frame display of the milestone moments of your infant or come up with a milestone album that can be used with a baby book. To have your newborn photographed, it is important to book your session way in advance such as during your second or third trimester. This will ensure that you will not miss out on capturing the special portraits of your newborn.

Studio photography sessions are usually completed within a period of 3 to 4 hours. During a studio session, photographers usually take individual portraits of the baby and then take portraits of the infant with other family members. Parents usually spend some time during a photo session comforting or feeding an infant to ensure that he or she remains in a good mood or sleepy. Newborn babies are usually photographed nude in order to capture their tiny bodily features.

If you want to have the photos of your newborn taken when he or she is wearing clothes, ensure that they are fitting. It is also advisable to carry items such as extra diapers, wipes, pacifiers and special blankets and toys that you would like the photographer to include in the photos. If the photos of your newborn will be taken while he or she is nude, you should carry extra clothes for yourself.

To ensure that your infant remains comfortable during the photo session, make sure that the room is warm. You can place space heater next to your infant or keep the heat turned up. It is also wise to play soft music or place something that produces white noise in the room to keep your infant calm. Do not force your infant into a pose that he or she is not comfortable in.

Melbourne photographers have different styles of taking photos and different levels of experience. Before you hire a photographer, consider whether you like the props, positions, poses and lighting that he or she uses. You should also ask to see the portfolio of the photographer and gauge the quality of photos he or she takes.
