Why Do We Prefer No-Posed Newborn Baby Photoshooting?
It is a common myth that usually the newborn baby photo session should have overly decorative aesthetics and props such as all blankets, pillows, background theme, and whatnot. In fact, from years of photography, we have observed that occupying the empty background with various elements is normalized to keep the baby a center of attraction in newborn photography.
Many parents go all out just to make their newborn baby photoshoot successful for better baby pictures. They will rush themselves carrying around those multiple props and essential things of the baby. At this point, even the baby gets disturbed due to being pushed for unnatural poses.
All these things and the baby becomes uncomfortable, taking longer time than the photo session takes.
Hence, I have stated below a few things that I believe are important for making a naturally posing newborn baby photo session.
Cozy Newborn Baby Gives Candid Pictures
A baby feeling uncomfortable in an environment where everyone in the room is calling it just to give an expression just doesn’t seem right considering that the photo session is to capture that baby’s beauty. So, to make it comfortable, you need to put on some music and lie with the baby for finer shots.
Natural Connection is Essential
Without any of the parent’s presence, the baby cannot feel cozy and warm. A family together makes a picture-perfect portrait. While capturing so many moments, nothing couldn’t top such a view for me. For that, carrying your baby with you would make a beautiful sight in the pictures.
Keeping Them Near Unnecessary Props
As an experienced photographer trained in newborn safety, believe me, nothing can settle the baby in one place. Despite taking proper measures, if you keep the baby in a basket or a crawler against their wish, it can make them feel icky. To avoid that, let them be in a blanket or over a big pillow.
Natural Mood Makes Baby Feel Like Home
Newborns are naturally cute, just like how we look at them besides the photos. Forcing them to play with all the toys while they are not feeling refreshed will make the newborn photo session a waste of time. That’s why it’s always better to leave them as how the newborns act.
On an Endnote…
I understand that being a newbie parent has an unexplained excitement for a photoshoot. So your expectations might be high for your newborn baby photo session.
But, it is highly suggested to prefer a simplistic yet genuine baby photoshoot theme as it will showcase the raw expressions of both the baby and the parents. Moreover, it would be worthier to find a newborn baby photoshoot near you for your convenience.
Regardless of the aforementioned reasons, if you still have any doubts or want any suggestions on newborn photography, kindly contact me, because I believe that guiding new parents will give them a perspective for better baby photos.
