Come prepared the shoot

It is important for you as a baby photographer, when going for a baby shoot, that you should come prepared. Going for a baby shoot is like going for a wedding. You have to come with all the equipments that you will do especially when you are having the shoot at the parent’s house. Come with cameras, lenses, backdrops, clamps, baby toys and possibly some change of clothes especially if you happen to get messed up by the baby. Since the session can take hours, it is important to go with your lunch and any water that you may need. I am suggesting you to check photography manual first before finalizing anything.

These manual will help you a lot. Apart from this, if you hope to have a successful session, make sure to include the parents of the baby. You will have to explain to them what you will need from them to make the session a success. Give them tips on how to make the baby comfortable for the session. Explain to them how you expect them to prepare the baby. Talk to them about feeding the baby and preparing the baby for the session.

Remember the baby

Make sure to keep the baby in mind all through the shoot. Understand that the baby can change moods at anytime. That is to say that you have to make the most of the time when the baby is at their best. Try to prepare for those times when baby is playful. Also understand that there will be time for baby to feed and baby can fall asleep at anytime during the shoot.

Plan the order of shoot

It is important to have a plan before you come for the shoot. Have a well planned script on how the shoot will be carried out. Make sure you know what comes first and what comes later in the shoot.

Know who will be included in the shoot

Are you going to be shooting only baby for the entire shoot or you will include other family members? If other family members will be included, they should be prepared and ready for when they are needed.

Let the baby inspire you

A baby shoot is not like an adult shoot that you can tell the adult what pose to take. Instead you will have to let the baby inspire you. Just let the inspiration flow as the baby leads.
