Life's Most Precious Moments

I wrote about a maternity shoot I had done a few posts back, and now I was ask to return and do newborn photos! Their precious child, Leiva'i, was incredibly adorable. The thing with newborns is that they are so unpredictable. They're fine one second and the next they want to be fed, making the shoot a bit trickier. You learn that this is one of the challenges of newborn photography and you learn to roll with it. If the mother has to feed her baby, then take the time to capture those precious moments. You need to work with what you've got in the time you have. Check your lenses...settings on the camera and even where you want to place the infant next. You should be conversing with mom, telling her that it is normal for newborn shoots to take periodic breaks. Remember, it is not YOUR schedule that should be followed, but rather the baby's! :)
