In-Home Newborn Photography in Maplewood NJ
I got to photograph Baby Eliza on International Women’s Day, right before the lockdown went into effect in the NYC metro area. On that day, we had no idea how our lives would change in the next few weeks and months…
Eliza was a bit fussy but I was able to rock and soothe her for the posing part of our session, She peacefully settled into sleepy coziness. Here are some images from this beautiful baby girl’s photography session:
Isn’t she adorable?
How To Find The Best Newborn Photographer For Your Family
As a professional newborn photographer, I often get asked about how I get babies to settle down during my sessions. Parents are often in awe of how their fussy babies sleep through the posing and handling.
While many factors come into play in any newborn photoshoot, the big secret to a successful newborn photography session lies in the skills and experience a Baby photographer like me constantly works to acquire and refine. Countless hours of training and practice go into becoming a skilled newborn photographer. After all, every new parent wants to hire only the best, right? To me, that means finding a professional who’s knowledgeable about newborn safety, lighting, wrapping, posing, and other aspects of this genre. Even after several years of photographing babies, I still learn something new with every session and every Baby - they’re all unique.
My advice to any parent looking to book the best newborn photographer for their new bundle of joy is to do thorough research and compare portfolios. Every newborn photographer comes with a different set of skills - both in photography and editing. Select your photographer based on the desired aesthetic and make sure to communicate your goals and wishes to them to see if it’s the right fit.
