• Try all angles – Find the ones that work the best for you, but don’t lose your lighting! • Use soft light – Try opening the blinds and take pictures using natural light • Make sure your baby has a full stomach and a good nap – babies tend to be in a better mood after they have eaten, or have just woken up from a nap. • Get creative – visit your local craft store for cute little decorations to add to your pictures, such as butterflies or flowers. • Take video – using any camera, take short segments to capture your babies laugh and all other sounds so you can remember them later! • Make a gift – Make a slide show or photo album for someone special. Also, there are a variety of stores that offer gifts such as purses, blankets, etc with your baby’s picture! • Keep shooting – babies grow up fast, so take lots of pictures of all the wonderful milestones!
