This is our newest nephew. He's about 10 days old in these photos.
Photography is much harder than it seems. It takes a lot of study and then a lot of practice!
On a recent visit to see family, which was very very short, I was lucky enough to steal a few shots of this beautiful boy.
Before taking these pictures, I had read a few things about newborn photography and became completely overwhelmed! Newborn Photographers schedule about 4-5 hours for a session! I knew there was no way I was going to be able get that kind of time, but I still wanted to at least try a few pics.
So in about and hour and a half these are basically the only photos I got.
Newborns need a lot of cuddling to make sure they're relaxed and comfortable and pose-able:)
Honestly, I loved the cuddling part, and the photography part was just a bonus.
Well, you can see that I need a lot more practice!
I've always wanted to try newborn photography! Love the pictures!
ReplyDeleteYou're so right, newborns are tricky little boogers. ;) But you managed to get some great shots!
