Newborn Photography Perth

Newborn Photography

Baby newborn photography is a type of photography that involves photographing newborn children. It is quite popular, and if you have ever been to a baby shower or visited a news website, chances are you have seen at least one example of it.

As a professional baby photographer, photograph newborns in various poses with props such as flower headbands or stuffed animals, often dressed in clothing specially made for the purpose. The photos are frequently posed in imitation of classical artwork, both religious and secular. The photographs are especially popular at this time because they celebrate the beauty of new life, innocence and purity.

Photography for newborns has become increasingly popular since digital cameras and camera phones have been more widespread due to the ease of taking pictures, and as newborn photographers, we make a very good living by newborn photography on location or through improvised studios at home.

There is an entire industry surrounding the marketing of specialized clothing, props and equipment specifically designed and produced for photography newborn sessions that range from expensive professional portfolios used by some top models to simple headbands sold online. Some parents choose not to use props while photographing their babies.

When props are used, they are often soft-edged and muted so as not to be obtrusive or detract from the subject.

Clothing is worn by infants in baby photography Perth is often either plain white or gender-neutral colours such as yellow, pink, blue, green, brown or striped in order to appeal more to potential buyers of the pictures. These can also be custom-made to match a particular baby photoshoot with matching hats and booties etc.

Some newborns need help adjusting during a session because they get tired easily due to lack of sleep caused by feeding every few hours around the clock which will usually happen for the first 3 months anyway. It is important to be patient and work with your child's natural rhythms.

Some babies will want to feed right before the baby photoshoot, which is not ideal as their attention span and behaviour will be affected. Very young infants should always have their sleep schedule respected and if they fall asleep during a session, it is never a good idea to wake them up again. A newborn photo was taken while sleeping is some of the most beautiful shots we can get with newborns because they look so peaceful and angelic.

Baby Photography Ideas

We all know the importance of taking pictures of your little ones, but during those first few weeks, it can be difficult to get enough time out of your baby's schedule just to take a quick pic. With these newborn photography ideas, we’ll have no excuse not to capture every sweet moment during this special stage.

During the early stages after birth, babies are very flexible and expressive. During that time they are alert and their eyesight is fantastic! We will be able to focus on their face from the close-up range within two or three days! This makes them perfect subjects for baby photo shoots at any age. When photographing newborns we always start with shots of Mommy kissing her little one or Daddy holding theirs.

Keep the shot simple, just focus on the baby's face. Try to minimize or even eliminate any distractions around them. We will have to wait until your baby is at least two weeks old before you can take full-body pictures of them. At that time their muscle tone will be solid enough for it. Picture props are not needed but if you choose to use them make sure they aren't too big and fit in with the natural look of the picture. For example, grandma's hand-crocheted blanket. Remember, less is more! Be patient, don't rush your little one into doing something they may not want to do at that particular moment.

As a newborn photographer Perth, photographing newborns is critical that safety comes first. We make sure the space is baby proofed and wear gloves when changing diapers. We recommend asking permission from your pediatrician before allowing anyone to hold your baby. That way you'll be prepared if she forbids it, reducing any tension between you and your baby's caretaker/baby photographer Perth. Remember, safety always comes first!
