Manila Newborn Photography

Haven't been posting in awhile, lots of things happening - moved houses in the middle of it all.

This little newborn baby gave me some amazing newborn photos! She was perfect all the way.

I love simple - simple baby JOY.

 MANILA NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHY

Manila Newborn Baby Photography: Some teeny tiny loveliness

Little A Newborn Photo: 12 days new

Mommy was super excited for this newborn shoot. Little A was excited too that she decided to come out a few days early! She was such a good sleeper during her newborn photography session and her big brother was such a tender big brother too! I  really enjoyed using some new props on her and glad that her mom loved my ideas :) what a breath of sunshine on an otherwise gloomy/rainy day.

Manila Newborn Photography: Rollllssss

There is nothing I love more about shooting newborns than their baby rolls! 

Check this little cuties out :) gosh... I loooove cuddling with 'em!!

Newborn Baby Photography: Summer Baby Portrait Love

Was so excited to shoot this newborn baby portrait session in her parents home because they had a wonderful garden, little did they know that it would be in a small patch of these beautiful plants that I would select to shoot in! Sprinkled a little Stork Studio magic and viola - the output was fantastic. This little woodland fairy slept the whole time and was such a sweetheart. Her parents were the nicest and I'm so happy that they have their new baby joy.

Manila Newborn Photographer: Baby Toes!

There is nothing more adorable in the world for me than itty bitty newborn baby toes :) 

Oh how I love them to bits, don't you?

Manila Newborn Photographer: Four Handsome Brothers

And then there were four!!! 

I was so excited to hear that their mom was expecting the 4th addition to this gorgeous brood of brothers. This newborn shoot was a little more complicated than others since I had a toddler to pose as well on top of the little one, good thing the two big brothers were awesome as usual and I was able to capture this priceless shot of them :)

Manila Newborn Photography: Baby Safety

Everyone loves the hands under the chin pose but shots like these should not be done by just anyone. There is a correct way to do it and it is actually a composite shot. Real Professional Newborn Photographers are trained on proper safety and on posing newborns. Don't compromise for a trendy pose like hanging on a tree or cloth, putting babies in  glass bowls or even this one, the shot is never more important than the safety of the child. 

Make sure your photographer knows what they are doing - ask for training credentials and their safety measures/techniques (ask to see samples from past shoots of safety techniques).  You will be surprised to know that most "amazing hanging shots" are actually composites and there is a way to hold the baby and a specific way to pose them when hanging - it isn't at all how you imagine it to be actually and most parents say "wow I never thought it was done that way" when they see it. 

So be safe and Choose only a PROFESSIONAL photographer, don't just take anyone's word for it - do your research and choose safety over savings - a life is in their hands after all.
