Taking photographs of newborn babies is very loveable. It's my hobby to take pictures of all things but I love to take photographs of newborn baby most. Sometimes capturing a tiny baby so fresh and new is scary. Here I explained some
tips for photographing newborn babies.
Click with your heart: If your photographs are not perfect technically then don’t worry about that. Some pictures that taken by me wrong but they look too good. So, click any type of image that you say and it will be so awesome.
Go black and white: Nowadays, the trend of color photography is too much higher than black and white. But no one can beat a classic and timeless black and white photography. Usually newborn baby’s skin can be a little bit splotched or red which hides in black and white. B&W photography worked here perfectly.
Take one shot you can’t live without: Every session includes the classic hand shot for me. I love the pose that baby is sleeping on the hand of his father.
Enjoy the sleepy hands: When a newborn baby is sleeping they are looking like angels. You can easily move the baby for any pose. And you can also put him/her in props. This type of photography looks so sweet.
Stock up on a variety of fabrics and blankets: Take one blanket or fabrics and cover a baby with it. You can also like to have several basic solids on hand of color black, white or of your any favorite baby color.

It can be so much fun to have
newborn baby photography. But it is also really difficult to take
photographs of newborn babies. It is a beautiful and special shoot and newborn baby photography for me is about capturing the beauty, innocence and the absolute love between baby and parents.
Here are some of the equipments I have used along the way.
Background stand: It was designed particularly with the on-location newborn baby photographer in mind. My advice is that if you are buying a background stand exclusively for newborn photography to buy from Amazon.
Blankets: When you are doing a newborn photo shoot I suggest having a blanket. I always use two blanket one colored and other light neutral colored. Just be sure it doesn’t fold easily.
Lightning Equipments: I am using a double umbrella. It is a semitransparent umbrella and white reflective or silver umbrella taped with it at the ends of the stem. I also work with the natural light where I have to go for a photo shoot.
When you are doing baby photography you have to keep in mind some tips like you have to use soft lights, try to avoid studio flash with babies under 3 months old, on behalf of that try to utilize natural light. Make a comfortable, soft and safe environment and also make sure that there is no hard object or surfaces for the baby to get hurt with.

Recently I was participating in interview of leading photographers from different industries, with different levels of expertise, on how they gained their success. They provided great insights how to get started, the tools they use and tips to becoming a better photographer. They give helpful tips is beneficial for all photographers, professional and especially those who are starting out.
There are many
types of photography like family, baby photography, wedding, nature, wildlife, landscape etc. I am specializing in
newborn baby photography. Professionals also give us advice that we should shoot anyone that we know, be open to shoot all types of photography, they also added that persistence and dedication are the two essential attributes that any photographer needs when starting off.
Most of the photographers use Light room software that provides an inclusive set of digital photography tools, survey says that 95% of photographer use Light room and remaining 5% are using Photoshop. These both software are developed and published by the Adobe system. Photoshop is a leading digital image editing program for print, internet and other types of new media.
Nowadays, we can see many types of cameras in the market like Canon, Nikon, Panasonic, Lumix, Mamiya, Hasselblad etc. But Nikon and Canon cameras are popular and are used widely because of their features, functionality and price. The number of users using both these cameras are equal. Other cameras are also used by many people but the professionals are partial to Nikon or Canon.
In the early days, we used films for
photography. But nowadays, in digital photography’s trend no one uses those films for photography.
I gained much knowledge from those experts. And it helps to grow my business baby photography in Chicago.
Are you interested in
Photography? Do you like to take photographs? If yes then have you ever checked which camera you are using and what are the features of that camera? Here I have written the difference between two brands of Camera they are Nikon and Canon. Nikon established on 25th July, 1910 in Shinjuku, Japan. And its president is Mokoto Kimura. The first Nikon branded camera Nikon I was released in 1948. Same as Canon launched on 10th August, 1937 Ota, Japan and Tsuneji Uchida is the president of Canon. Hansa Canon is the first branded camera with 3.5/50mm lens.
Canon and Nikon are more popular than the other branded camera because of their characteristics with much older equipments. Nikon D7000 and the Canon EOS 60D are the different models of Nikon and canon respectively. The Nikon D7000 produces top quality outcomes in almost any capturing situation. Canon Eos 60D shoots Full HD at 25/30fps frame rates. In the first round the world wide reviews of experts are taken for both Nikon and Canon. And the Canon has got a slight advantage. And in the second round we checked out reviews of all users who use Nikon and Canon. In this round Nikon is the crowd entertainer and wins this round.
In the third round I have written about the compact cameras. It is a best tool for someone to professional snappers who just want something fast and simple to capture memorable snaps with ease. The whole series of Nikon Coolpix is slim, stylist designed and it has good workmanship within a compact camera that fits well in your hand. Coolpix assures shooting in Night landscape and night portrait scene modes. This series makes easy to capture beautiful photographs at night. Like the Coolpix, canon has its own series named Power shot. The Canon Power shot A800 is their entry level camera and the Power shot a sequence differs in design and requirements but nevertheless the craftsmanship and high quality on the Canon creates it only one of the leaders in compact cameras with a wonderful finish and design. We get lots of ratings and opinions from both experts and users. This round also wins by Canon.
Every second o lot of people post pictures, most of them taken with Nikon cameras. Second last round, in this round I have written about nowadays, which cameras are the most popular cameras. Nikon D90 is the most popular camera among others. It offers 12.3megapixel resolution, extended light sensitivity capabilities. It is the first Digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR) offer video offering and you can also record HD 720p Videos with mono sounds, at 24 frames per second. After Nikon D90 second one is Apple iPhone4. It has 5 megapixels I sight camera. It also offers video recording, HD (720p) up to 30frames per second with audio and VGA quality videos and photos at up to 30 frames per second with the front camera, LED flash. And then the Canon EOS 4500 combines uncompromising performance with ease of use in a compact, ergonomic body. Catch your world with a 12.2 Mega-pixel CMOS sensor and the very newest Canon technology. It is compatible with over 60EF/Ef-S lenses. Second last camera Canon EOS 5D Mark II is a 21.1 megapixel full frame CMOS DSLR camera made by Canon, this is the first Canon EOS camera which has a video recording capability. And finally last canon EOS 5000 is a light weighted and compact body features a big 15.1 megapixel CMOS sensor as well as the sharp Full HD movie recording.
Now final round, being appreciated for the quality of all cameras, but at the end it's all about money. The winner is that who will sell the most cameras and makes the most money and that is Canon. So the winner is Canon and we also appreciate that Nikon gives a tough fight, but in the last round canon hit back with impressive sales figure.
Everyone has different preferences and reasons for their choice of brand. I am a professional baby photographer in Chicago. As a newborn baby photographer, I capture many photographs of babies and also in other occasion. I prefer only canon camera because I like its body and is easy to use.
