DIY Infant Photos

Anyone plan on taking their own artsy type of infant pics when their LO gets here...I love the pics, but Im not sure if I want to spend the $$ for pro pics.

Also,my dad is an artist (not a photographer), and has a great eye for pics, and a pretty awesome camera,and he said he would help.

Am I being too ambitious??Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: DIY Infant Photos

I am going to do it myself, I am sure they will not look professional, but home made by mommy can be just as good.

We'll be doing out own. DH went to photography school so I'm pretty confident in our skills together. We won't do anything elaborate.

im into photography and have done a few shoots for my friends... i will say if you have ANY opportunity for a professional shoot, do it. its NOT the same doing it yourself. the lighting, editing and posing is MUCH more difficult than it appears. i figure with my own kid it will be better cause i wont be shy about moving Chat Icon around for pics... but still especially with a nice camera, the lighting is soooo super important.

Idk if it counts a diy but DH is a pro photographer so we will be doing maternity and infant photos ourselves. I'm still in the process of scoping out diff ideas and cutsie hats :)

I am getting them professionally done but I will also be taking them on my own as well.
