Using the Best Lenses for Newborn Photography

  • The most preferred cameras are the Canon and the Nikon. Thus, find lenses that are compatible with any of these two camera brands.
  • Use appropriate lenses for your specific purpose. An example is using a wide-angle lens when shooting a family picture with your newborn baby.
  • Before starting to shoot, jot down the photographs you would want to take. This would ensure that you have ample time to prepare properly the props and settings that you need. You have also to note what images you want to put focus on.
  • Take pictures at a time when the newborn is at his happiest.Typically, newborns establish a daily routine within a week. Determine what time your baby is not grumpy or easily irritated. Generally, this is when the baby is properly fed, is clean and dry and had slept sufficiently. Some infants may be unpredictable, so always be ready with your camera set. Close up shots are great when the baby is fast asleep because you can move his body to capture the smallest details. A baby is considered a newborn from birth up to two months.
  • Maximize the use of props to improve your portraits. Sometimes, the addition of a little prop can significantly enhance the image. Learn how to use pillows, toys, or natural settings (flowers and others) to lend superb contrast and vibrancy to your portraits.
  • Be ready to explore and experiment. When the moment calls for it, don’t hesitate to capture that moment, even when that image is not included in your photograph list. Newborns are unpredictable and you have to be ingenious to seize that remarkable moment. Find a good angle and capture the portrait. One of the greatest angles is usually one that you can find when you’re sitting or lying down low and close to the newborn.
  • Shoot from all angles and find the best shots later. You can choose this option when your camera can shoot continuously and smoothly. In this case, your cam should be noiseless and smooth as newborns can wake up easily due to the camera’s shutter noise.
  • Most newborns are more sensitive than older infants; so, his safety is crucial. Keep your hands clean and sanitized. His delicate skin can get damaged with too much light or friction. Thus, you may opt to use natural light instead.But if your lens can shoot photographs even with low light, then there won’t be any problem. Using cameras ad lenses that can shoot under any type of lighting conditions is recommended. Nevertheless, newborns are the best subjects when you’re able to capture them during their “happiest times”.
  • Use post-photo shoot processing tools, whenever necessary. Many of those phenomenal shots of newborns that you can see online areedited to show perfection. Be ready to use the Photoshop app to improve or retouch your portraits. An example is when you would want to smooth the baby’s skin or remove unnecessary distractions, such as dirt on his clothing, or a blemish on his face. Using an application to bring out the best in your photograph is ingenious. Yet, you must not overdo it, or you will lose the natural essence of the photograph.

Best Trampoline for Kids and Baby

Image
Over the past few years we have tested over two dozen different trampolines. Some designed for toddlers ages 2-3 or so, and others designed for bigger kids aged 4-7 or so. There are also much larger ones for bigger kids aged 8+ and we include one of those in the list below, simply because we’ve had such great experiences with it. We focus primarily on toddler trampolines and “big kid” trampolines: The toddler trampolines usually are smaller, provide less of an elevated bounce, and have an attached handlebar with padding to ease kids into learning how to bounce on their own. These are very low to the ground (usually 4-6″), usually have a weight capacity under 80 pounds, and use either springs or bungee cords to hold the jumping surface onto the frame. Our boys have never fallen off one of these (knock on wood!), even in the beginning, and they are not the most coordinated boys in the world! But they have succeeded in bouncing the trampoline into oblivion and breaking t...

Nikon Z 6

Image
Nikon is new to the full frame mirrorless category, and while the Nikon Z 6 may not be quite as refined as Sony’s third generation, the new camera still packs a powerful punch. The Z 6 uses a 24.5-megapixel full frame sensor that captures excellent images. DxOMark ranks it right below the Sony a7 III by a single point. The camera body also has stabilization built-in. This can help in those low light shots if the baby isn’t moving around. As part of Nikon’s new mirrorless series, the Z 6 has access to a lot of existing Nikon lenses using an adapter. This could be reason enough to choose the Z 6 for photographers that already own some Nikkor glass. Like most mirrorless cameras, there’s a silent electronic shutter for when being quiet matters. And the Z 6 is even faster than the a7 III with a 12 fps, though that’s in an extended mode with a few limitations. The Z 6 is lighter than Nikon’s DSLRs, though not by a lot if you use a heavier Z lens or once you add t...
