One thing I wish I did for my two girls is hired a professional photographer for newborn photos. When my oldest daughter was born, I had just purchased an SLR and thought that I could take the pictures myself. Looking back at the photos, they are no where near professional. With my twins I decided to hire a newborn photographer. A professional photographer doesn't just have a fancy camera and lots of props and backdrops, they have patience and skill in posing the babies. I hired
Kymberley Day Photography and I couldn't be happier with the results. She was so patient and skilled in posing the babies. She took her time on every shot, making sure each pose was perfect, down to the fingers! I loved all the props she had and the care she took into editing each picture. Our boys peed everywhere but she managed to photoshop all the wet spots out of the photo. She wasn't even fazed by the mess.
Here are some of my pictures. They may look effortless but there was a lot of work and care put into getting each and every shot.
