Finding A Good Newborn Photographer Melbourne

By Jeannie Chapman


The first weeks of a child's life is so amazing. Their size, their sleepy innocence is a true miracle. Do yourself a favor and don't relay on cell phone to capture these moments. Take the time to get a professional newborn photographer Melbourne who will make sure you get a portrait that is worth sending to family and friends. The experience a professional brings to things is well worth the expense.

Experienced photographers don't just have good equipment. They know how to light, pose and use the background to create unforgettable scenes. Most will also know how to get the baby to light up and sparkle in the photographs. They will also be able to gently retouch the images to make sure everything looks perfect. Simply said, a newborn photographer Melbourne will ensure you get the look you want.

You have a few choices when it comes to background and setting. Many photographers will come to your home and shoot both inside and outside. This will give you a number of different options when it comes to choosing your favorites. Professional photographers may also recommend an outside location such as a park to shoot. This another benefit of using a professional.

Some prefer to work in a studio. This gives them more control over lighting and generally means you will have more background choices. A new trend is dressing up the baby in fun and colorful costumes. Everything from vegetables to animals is possible. They will also have a number of props to choose from allowing you to get the look and feel you want.

So where do you go to find a newborn photographers Melbourne? Most turn to the internet. This is a good route as you'll be able to quickly find who is nearby, but also you'll be able to check out examples of their work online. Check to see if they do in fact specialize in newborns. Babies require special skills so make sure they have plenty of experience. If the majority of their work isn't newborns, you might want to look elsewhere.

From searching online, try and narrow your choices down to three or so. Then you'll want to talk to each one, in person if possible. It is so important that you feel comfortable with the photographer. Even though most of the shots will likely be of baby, you'll want to get some family shots done too. If you don't feel a connection with the photographer it will come through in the photos. Take the time to meet and be diligent about asking about their experience and background.

Pricing should be covered early in the process. Some will charge only for the session and their time and let you do the printing yourself. This is a worthwhile option if you think you'll be printing a lot of photos. Others will want you to pay them for prints. This can be more expensive, but the quality will more than likely be very high. Ask about their retouching expertise. This is an important part of the process as all babies (and their families) will likely have a few spots to clean up.

The first weeks and months of your newborn's life is precious. Having a professional newborn photographer Melbourne is well worth the expense and effort. Your baby goes through changes fast, so don't wait to capture the moments. You won't be sorry you documented those first months with a professional.
