beautiful baby pictures
She's the cutest thing in the world, a pink and
chubby bundle of happiness.
So capturing your baby’s beauty on camera
should be the easiest thing in the world. But too often the results
are not as good as you’d hoped.
So follow our guide and you’ll soon be filling
albums with delightful digital pictures of the new addition to your
family.
Tip one: be prepared
Keep your camera in one handy place at home so
when your little one is looking particularly photogenic, you’re
ready to get the picture.
Going out with your baby involves as much
preparation as the average assault on Everest. Get into a routine of
packing your camera along with the wipes, bottle, nappies, change of
clothes…
Tip two: timing is all
Just like adults, babies are not always in a
good mood (and don’t they let you know it!). If your baby is hungry,
tired, too hot or too cold, put the camera away.
Wait until she’s fed, rested and comfortable.
Then she’ll be ready for her close-up.
Time of day also makes a difference to that
essential of every good picture: lighting.
Bright afternoon sunshine can make your baby
squint and grimace. So find a shady spot for pictures. And although
you’re outdoors, think about using flash to even out any shadows.
Tip three: get down
The best pictures of your baby are taken at her
level. Kneel, sit or crouch down to take photos, and zoom in close.
Seeing those beautiful blue eyes looking out from your photo album
is much nicer than the top of her head.
Tip four: back to basics
A simpler background is always better. Put your
baby on a plain blanket and clear away background clutter. Don’t let
anything distract the viewer from your beautiful baby!
Tip five: pop in some props
Give your baby a favourite toy. A picture of
her absorbed in play is always enchanting. And you’ll be able to
keep a record of how she is growing with pictures of her holding a
favourite doll a taken a few weeks apart.
Tip six: bring in the family
Time with your family is precious, so capture
it on camera. When the baby is playing with her cousin, or falls
asleep on grandma’s lap, take a photo. They’ll all want to see it,
which leads us to…
Tip seven: share the results
