DIY In-hospital Photography

With professional photographers not being allowed to capture in-hospital fresh 48 sessions right now, here are some tips and tricks.

-Take the photos during the day when there is plenty of window light.

-TURN OFF the hospital lights! Use the window light only, if you can.

-Position your baby facing the light coming through the window.

-Don't shoot towards the window. Shoot with the window to your side or to your back, but be careful not to block the light coming through.

-Don't photograph aiming up the babies nose. Shoot down, from above or the side of the baby.

-Get close! Thats where the details are! Fresh skin and tiny fingers and toes are important.

-Don't use filters. Baby is perfect just the way they are.

-Ask your nurse to swaddle the baby for you. Nurses are great at this!

-Be in the picture. One day your child will look back and be in awe of this moment. At the very least use your hands around their head to have as a reference to how small they began.

-Don't worry about the hospital tags. Those are apart of the story.
