That may be true as newborns spend most of their days sleeping, so getting great shots of them is not as easy as you think. Generally, people like babies to be wide awake and smiling in photos. Why not try a different approach? By using a little bit of creativity, it will definitely make a difference to your shot. Here are some tips to creating great baby photographs.

You will be amazed on what you will see.Bring in probs(eg.cute toys) to the picture to add in more fun.Don't be afraid to take too many pictures. It's usually these extra photos that add interest to your baby's album. Create an interesting portfolio of photographs. Let your child be off center in a few photographs. This has aesthetic appeal.
