Babies, keeps us young, and it’s astonishing, how such a little person, can already have such a strong will of their own, and they definitely have their way of making themselves heard. Babies express without any resistance and so truthfully and honestly, and it’s exactly because of that reason, that we enjoy photographing them so much. Not to take away from the high cuteness degree though…

Best times to photograph babies, is not set in stone to specifics, just importantly, when they’ve been fed, and they’ve had a healthy nap so that they are giving us their ultimate amount of smiles. Its better just to bring them, when they have had the above, as it will benefit mostly them. The studio could be a place unlike any other they’ve seen- as it’s not grandma’s house, or their own, and they could be a bit overwhelmed by a large white backdrop, and big studio lights, so we would want to have them at their friendliest.

People often ask us, what do they need to wear, and we say, what works well, is dressing uniformly, in like colours, or all just being brightly dressed. Especially babies have such lovely personalities; it has to be brought out by dressing them all brightly. Whatever age though, they still stay cute and wonderful, and a baby shoot at Louise Diesel Photography studio, is a great idea.
