Agree that it is interesting to listen to stories about how funny you were as a child. It is even more interesting to look at yourself in infancy. And, of course, photography can help in this. Responsible parents have long acquired cameras to chronicle their child's growing up. You can take a thousand photos. Another question is how to make original, truly beautiful photographs.
Necessary
- - camera;
- - several lighting devices;
- - photography skills.
Instructions
Step 1
Set up a small photo studio at home. To do this, you do not need to make any special expensive acquisitions. You can use ordinary table lamps or lanterns as light sources. Rest assured, a good photo can be obtained with any camera, with any number of lighting fixtures. An important role here is played, rather, by the ability to frame, show imagination and, of course, a feeling of love in relation to your baby.
Step 2
Organize a backdrop for future photography. Take a soft white towel or a piece of pretty fabric and pillow. Lay it all out beautifully on the table. Think of a fancy accessory for your little one - a funny hat, colorful shirt or bonnet.
Wait for the moment when your baby falls asleep. Dress him up in a suit that you have invented. Lay amongst the space you have organized (pillows and fabrics). You can place an object (fruit, musical instrument, or toy) next to your baby. Shoot by a window so there is enough light in the frame, or use lighting fixtures.
Shoot a little from above so that you can see how small your baby is compared to the objects that you put next to it. For this contrast, use the hands of an adult. Have the baby's father take the sleeping baby in his arms. Compose the frame so that the baby's head rests on the father's open palm. If you work with light thoroughly, you will get very touching photographs.
Step 3
Take more photos in motion. Those. capture the moment when you feed the baby, change clothes. So that your photo album does not turn into a collection of pictures of a lump wrapped in diapers. Capture your baby's first movements. Many years later it will be interesting to watch just such live photographs.
Take some close-ups. Catch funny expressions on your toddler's face. Frame the close-up with the child's eyes. It doesn't matter if the baby is sleeping or not, keep the camera at eye level, then the photo will turn out more expressive.
