You want to give back. You want to share your talents with the world.Β And you’ve decided to do it in the NICU.
You are awesome. Β Yes, I’m talking to you- and do you want to know why? Β Because these families need & deserve the extra love during the difficult time of having a healing baby.
So, if you’re going to rock it out, let’s make sure you can REALLY rock it out and be a blessing!
So my 3 favorite tips about newborn photography…
#1- Work with what you’ve got. Β A giant window in the room will be the perfect lighting for soft newborn portraits. Β A white wall or curtain makes a fabulous backdrop when shot at low apertures.
#2- Don’t forget the details. Β Room numbers, the name band on those skinny little legs, the little eyelashes that are budding.
#3- Add in the parents. Β Of course we are creating these images for mommy & daddy… BUT… in time these images will be handed down for this sweet little one to enjoy forever. Β It’s only fair that he or she can see their mom and dad looking at them in awe!
And last of all, have FUN!
Love,
