Photographing Portraits in Vancouver - babies and bellies
Author: Elizabeth Soergel
Article:
I love to photograph growing bellies and newborn babies and that
is why I offer my clients a package that includes both sessions.
Prenatal photography is a growing trend for new moms and an event
well worth photographing. This time goes by so quickly and
speaking from experience - it is something that is hard to
remember without images to bring you back. Babies grow so
quickly and the newborn stage is so precious. After only a month
or two parent's are shocked by how much they grow and the
newborn stage, unless photographed is hard to recall.
It's these reasons that I explain to my clients why it's so
important to have me there as soon after the baby arrives as
possible.
When I am doing prenatal photography in vancouver bc I recommend doing it within the 8th calendar month of the pregnancy. I find that it's during this time that
mom is still feeling good and her belly is still at a size where
posing for shots is comfortable. Always on location - I look for
natural light and interesting compositions. It's important that
both compliment my subject and make them look as great as
possible.
Baby photography is always a bit more challenging as I always go
by the baby's schedule which can be very unpredictable! I never
schedule less than 2 hours for the shoot and work hard to get a
big variety of shots. I include details of the baby's room, baby
awake, baby sleeping, baby eating, family groupings, siblings,
toys, and anything I can find in the home that represents a new
born baby.
I always look for new and interesting elements when doing
prenatal and baby photography so that my work is always fresh
and inspiring.
