Choosing A Newborn Maternity And Family Photographer

By Phyllis Schroeder


Pregnancy is a period of your life that you will always cherish. Time passes by so quickly that before you know it, your baby bump will just be a memory. It is essential that you find a way to preserve those precious moments.

There are many ways you can save your memories. One of the trends for new moms and soon to be moms is to hire a newborn maternity and family photographer Singapore. This is a surefire way to capture the moments from the baby bump to holding a newborn up until you have a complete family photo.

A quick search online will show you that there are lots of photographers that work with newborns and pregnant women. Its better to choose a professional who specializes in these types of pictures because a regular photographer may not know how to deal with children. It may not be as comfortable an experience than if you were to choose a pregnancy and family photographer.

These professionals can offer you packages that include several photo shoots from the time you are pregnant until your child is a few weeks to a few months old. Packages are probably the best option to go with since this offers you a chance to save money. There is usually a maternity photo shoot then a newborn one when your baby is less than 2 weeks old then other sessions when the baby is 3, 6, and 9 months old.

If you have a friend that is a photographer or likes to dabble in photography as a hobby, you can try asking them. That may be a way to get a better price for the photos. One of the reasons that parents may not want to hire a professional is the cost of these sessions.

The usual price for a 60 to 90 minute session would be between 200 to 400 dollars. That is not cheap by any standards but if you sign up for packages, you may be able to get a discount. Look around for the best deals. Always make sure you see examples of their work so that you can get a sense of their work before you shell out your money.

Another option would be to pick up a camera and take your own pictures. There are plenty of tutorials and tips that you can research to really be able to get a great shot of you and your family. One thing that is great about DIY photo sessions is that you can capture plenty of candid shots for your family album.

Being pregnant is not always glamorous. There will be days that you may not feel beautiful and the hormones always make it tough. Having a maternity photo shoot will offer you a chance to feel relaxed and comfortable. It can show the beauty of pregnancy.

A maternity and newborn shoot is not to everyones liking. Some say it is a waste of time and money. Its a great time capsule of that part of your life. Its really an investment you can choose to have because before you know it your little one is not so little anymore.
