Baby Photo Tips

Baby photo tips can be used whether you hire a professional photographer or take the photos yourself. While a professional baby photographer can produce images that are stunning, the cost can be prohibitive.

One way to save money on baby photographs is to take your own. With the coming of the digital camera and computer software for tweaking the photographs, even the recreational photographer can produce memorable baby photos.

Here are some of the best baby photo tips submitted by our friends in cyberspace.

1. The best tip I can give on getting that perfect photo is to use a digital camera and snap away! Depending on whether you're trying for a natural result or using props to elicit a certain response, you want to take as many as possible so you don't miss the perfect moment.
   
2. I think the best tip for taking a good baby picture is for it to be natural with no poses, catch the baby when he is doing something he does on a daily basis, like eating or yawning. These are the cutest pictures.
   
3. I have found with my children that the best pictures are spur of the moment and unplanned. When I try to make everything perfect nothing comes out right.
   
4. Never pose a baby, just wait for the right moment for the baby to have a photo taken. Close-up photos (this is easiest to take when the baby is in a car seat) and photos of a baby during the bathing time are the best ones. If the baby has siblings, include them in some of the pictures.
   
5. Take a picture of your child every month - posed with the same stuffed animal. It's fun to watch them grow!
   

Most of the baby photo tips offered above seem to focus on spontaneity and the spur-of-the-moment snap of the camera’s shutter. Based on that wisdom, you should never have to say, “Oh, I wished I’d had a camera handy,” because you’ll have that digital camera, or even your camera-phone handy and never miss that once-in-a-life-time shot. Those are the shots that produce the most creative photo birth announcements.
