Let’s start with the hospital baby photographer

Basically what happens is a photographer will take your baby’s picture in a small side room where the hospital has found for them. Inside hospital lighting may not always be the greatest.

They put the baby in the hospital baby bed, lying on back, and Click! It’s done…you now have your baby photo.

Hmmm….well that doesn’t sound very hard. So why do we all get those photos done?

Because your baby is the most precious gift from God and you want to be able to cherish that moment forever.

And that’s why we pay the photographer the big bucks.

Here on some tips on getting the best picture from the photographer.

• Make sure the baby is wearing a brightly colored outfit
• No patterns, just solid colors
• Ask to have the baby’s blanket put underneath them
• Your own special photo shoot
• Photography is such a fun way to express yourself and I’m sure you have someone in your life that enjoys it as a hobby.
• So…..why not ask that person to come and do your own special photo shoot with your baby?
• Posed shots are nice, but the candid ones show what moms new life is like with the new baby. Get your friend to follow you around the hospital and take pictures in the nursery too.
