Make Sure You Find A Reputable Orange County Newborn Photographer

By Dora Reed


Having a baby is a true joy to any parent. This is the time when one will want to forever remember the little bundle of joy before they grow up and become older. The sort of Orange County newborn photographer Huntington Beach CA has, will capture the moment and one can treasure them ever after.

Trying to find that person who is willing to be there from the moment one begins to show to the time the child is attending his graduation is important. Selecting a photographer before the baby is born will give one an overall feeling on how they conduct the business. It will also give an opportunity to see how the prints come out and if they are up to ones satisfaction.

For those that are interested in doing this kind of work there are many courses and workshops that are offered. The basic course is a 30 hour hands on training over seven weeks. This will include having three shoots with an instructor. Once the course has been completed one will still get help through a network by the same instructors.

When taking pictures of a newborn try to ensure that the flash is switched off. An airy and light room will be best for this with white walls and large windows. If the session is getting done during winter always ensure that the room is warm as this will leave baby content.

Another that is extremely talented is Sugar Free Photography. One can book a maternity shoot before the baby is born and this can either be done at the studio or somewhere else. Many are done on the beach where it gives a peaceful feeling of not being in front of a camera. Amber has been trained in working with newborns and is certified in Infant CPR so one will never be worried about leaving the baby to have some shots taken.

To attend this course having a Digital SLR Camera and a tripod is a must. Having basic knowledge of exposure, shutter speeds, ISO as well as White Balance will be beneficial. Having knowledge of Adobe Photoshop and a computer with Lightroom 3 is also needed. There are a few other courses that cover studio lighting, portrait and wedding for those interested in specializing.

Sometimes taking a hundred photos will leave only one truly amazing one. This is because babies have their own schedules, they do not understand what co operation means. The best time to take these is after they have eaten and/or rested. They are then more likely to be more intent on trying to focus on movement. One will need to put them in cute poses without upsetting them; this will require skill and patience.

Orange County photographers are there to capture that special moment in one's life. It does not necessarily have to be just about baby but about the whole family. They all have state of the art equipment and are able to bring out those unique moments that one wants to treasure forever.
