Top 3 Places for a Newborn Photoshoot
You’ve just brought a new life into this world and now it’s time to show the little one off to friends and family. Since it’s likely not everyone close to you is close to you, sending out birth announcements is the perfect way to share the love.
After teaming up with Basic Invite, an innovative stationery design company, I decided that this would be the perfect subject for a newborn related post to inspire some of you new moms for your newborn sessions and also introduce you to a resource that moms love!
Basic Invite is an online stationery company carrying everything from bridal shower invitations and custom wedding suites to personal stationery and family Christmas cards. They have an extremely diverse online store with unique and high-quality cards. Basic Invite has more than 180 custom colors to choose from, 100 font choices, various card cuts and paper types, and the ability to customize any design! Not to mention, all of this is available from the comfort of your own home which is especially nice for new moms trying to balance a baby, chores, and whatever else life throws at them.
If you haven’t thought about where you are going to take your newborn photos let’s see if we can’t bring you a few ideas!
At Home
Newborn photos taken at home is a classic choice especially since there are companies that offer Lens Rentals Pittsburgh where you can pay a small fee to rent a professional lenz for your camera. Feeling comfortable and relaxed is going to give you a leg up when is comes to the ease of your baby and that will help produce wonderful photos. Another perk to taking newborn photos at home is capturing the family and the family home. Whether you put your baby in their crib or cozy up with them on your bed, later down the line these photos will serve as a memento to more than just a new baby, but a chapter of life.
In the Studio
Sometimes leaving it to the professionals is just easier. Taking your baby to the studio might seem daunting, but your photographer knows what they are doing and they have seen it all. Bring a few props with you like blankets, a basket, bows, toys or whatever else you want for the set up and then leave it to the photographer to do the rest. You’ll get professional looking photos and you will be in and out of there in a jiffy!
A Day at the Park
Add a touch of scenery by going to the park or outside in your back yard. This is a nice idea if you are going for more of a family photo shoot rather than a newborn session alone. Make a day out of it and grab a picnic basket and a blanket and spend some quality time together while having a fun photoshoot!
Whether you keep it simple at home, leave it in the hands of the professionals, or make a day of it be sure to take your beautiful new photos and head to Basic Invite to create luxury birth announcements.
