Baby photos between the second and sixth month are something very special, because the little ones are already exploring the environment – and at the same time still quite in need of cuddling.
As new parents, time just seems to fly. Before you know it, the first weeks and months with the baby are already over. During this time, it can be difficult to focus on baby photos because you’re still getting used to the new situation. You may also just feel too stressed a lot of the time. Especially if mom may feel uncomfortable in her skin, that doesn’t make it any easier. But don’t worry: great and unique newborn photos can be taken at any time.
The right time for newborn photos
Particularly cute newborn photos can be taken not only with very freshly born babies. Between the second and sixth month, there is another very special phase in which unique memories can be captured. The little ones are then already a little bigger, can lift their heads in the prone position and begin to discover their surroundings.
When making an appointment, I already ask for the best time of day so that the little ones don’t come to the baby shoot totally overtired or hungry. Experience shows that mornings are better than afternoons.
Outfits for the baby photos
When you come to the shoot, we first calmly discuss what outfits you have brought with you. You are also welcome to browse through my rental wardrobe and select one or the other outfit for your baby. Especially for babies between the second and sixth month, I have quite a bit to choose from.
The right pace during the photo shoot
The pace of the photo shoot and the poses at the age after several weeks then determines the baby itself. If the baby likes to lie down, we do great lying poses. If cuddling is the order of the day, we will cuddle in mom’s or dad’s arms. It’s also perfectly okay if the baby is hungry or a little tired in between. We then build in lots of breaks so that the baby can recover.
“Ohhhh – there’s a bird flying by outside right now?” Of course, this may also be admired in peace. Of course, we also build in lots of breaks for the bigger babies at a few months old, if they need it. Maybe they get a little hungry… Or sometimes a little tired. It has happened quite often that even the “big ones” still fall asleep like little newborn babies quite blissfully during the photo shoot.
Photos with big babies
For me, baby shoots with big babies who are already several months old are something very special. The little ones are already little world explorers, react to their environment and are still in need of cuddling and the closeness of their parents. At this stage of life, babies are simply magical and it’s a joy to capture these moments in photos. What do you think?
