3 Best Baby Poses

July 8th, 2009

baby-feetAs mentioned before I love to take pictures, especially of my sweet boy. I’ve recently started taking pictures of friend’s children as well. I have come up with my own little list of the 3 best baby poses as decided by myself and these friends.

Parent holding baby feet – that is the image used in this post, although it is not one of mine. It is a classic way to capture how tiny your baby is. They don’t stay small forever and as they grow it can be hard to remember when they were just so tiny. Not to mention, how kissable are those little footsies?

Face down – Put the little one face down on a fuzzy blanket. Curled up and adorable. Of course you won’t let him/her sleep like this but it is an excellent pose.

Head on shoulder – This gives a nice face shot of the baby and a profile of the parent. Take the picture from behind the parent with his/her face looking towards the baby. The baby’s head should be on the shoulder looking at mom or dad. Although a sleeping baby in this pose is pretty fantastic too.

What is your favorite way to pose a baby? In a basket of towels? In a bubble bath? Give me some of those great ideas!
