Murfreeboro, Tennessee Newborn Baby Photographer | Newborn Safety

I love creating beautiful images for clients to display in their homes. However my #1 priority is safety for your baby. I am well educated in newborn safety and will never put your baby in a dangerous position. With digital cameras comes many photographers, not all are equal. Please make sure to choose your photographer carefully for your newborn photos.

Photos that are composites are seen online and then can be replicated incorrectly because to the untrained eye they look like baby is posed with no assistance when in fact hands were on the newborn at all times. This is most often done with the “froggy” pose. Never, ever should baby be propped in this position without the support of the photographers or assistants hands. This look is completed with taking multiple shots and editing them together and this should still only be attempted after training. Another common mistake that I have seen happen is not weighing down buckets used for putting babies in. This is a huge hazard as it could easily be tipped over.

Here is a sample of the “froggy” pose. My sessions are led by your baby, I never force any pose on a them. Each newborn is different, if they don’t settle easily in a certain position I move on to something else.
