We’ve all seen them, on magazine covers, billboards and even on TV.  Super cute photos of babies are everywhere!  I’ve come to the realisation that nine out of 10 parents (most people actually) would love to have photos like these taken of their babies but they haven’t put any thought into what it takes to get these beautiful baby portraits.

It’s a fact that babies are “hardwired” to smile at faces they recognise (this means you, mommy and daddy)  This is an age old survival mechanism to make them even cuter to you, so you will do your utmost best to give them your all.

So in your photoshoot we really appreciate when you also make an effort to make your baby smile.  I can promise you that you are probably more than the  one-hundredth person I’ve seen pulling faces, making animal noises pr playing air guitar as if your life depended on it, simply to get your little one to crack a smile.  And frankly put we prefer it this way J

So don’t forget to bring your “wacky side” to the studio as we love them all!
