Natalie's photo shoot

As I nurse my daughter, I want to be a proud momma and show off my awesome daughter & her gorgeous pictures! I can also give some tips on how to take a good picture! After our photo shoot we learned a lot!

1) Nurse or feed before the photographer comes. This will calm your baby down, or put them to sleep, making it easier for the photographer. 
    *We had to learn this the hard way, and feed her half way through the session because she was cranky!
<-- After the feeding!

2) Have a pacifier nearby.  This helped our baby calm down, but we did have pacifiers in the pictures. So, make sure the pacifier is something you wouldn't mind seeing in the pictures!



3) Swaddle! We made some pictures work by putting her in a swaddle.
4) Stick with a white onesie. We tried to change her over and over again, and realized that made it harder for her. Putting her in one white onesie then adding decorations made it easier!  
   *One of our changing sessions, she was calm before we tried to change her again!

5) Last but not least - go with the flow & have fun!!
