Newborn photo's at parent's home - 09-27-2009, 07:37 PM


How do you do these? I have only done one and I used the floor as the surface to build upon. It was realy difficult with the lack of space that I had to get the shots I wanted. Is there a better way to do this? Is it better to do it on a table or bed?

Any ideas are welcome!!!

Some people will put their props right on the floor (if the floor is nice wood). I will sometimes use a small coffee table, and put some blankets over it for padding. Kind of depends on what you're going for. I've also seen people use bean bag chairs with a blanket on top. Then have someone hold the blanket up for a backdrop. This looks really good!

I use a beanbag chair and bring a small portable backdrop stand that I use to drape the blanket over...I have used the bed in the past with a boppie.... :)

I use the ottoman if they have one. I use to used the couch, but that is limiting unless they have a nice sectional.
