Newborn photography safety pull back - composite froggy pose |
I used to use mum's or dad's help to hold the baby, but now I do it myself holding baby with one hand and taking the photo with the other. I have full control and I'm confident that head is not going anywhere.
It's the same when it comes to siblings. This little girl on the photo below was only 2 years old. Even though she was really calm and good with instructions, we'd never let her hold her baby sister! As you can see there is dad sitting on the left and mum on the right actually holding baby's head.
