One of the most common asked questions we receive as newborn photographers is how we make all of the images look so perfect. The truth is that we work a lot of magic during and after the shoot, primarily with a little trick referred to as composite imagery. In short, we combine multiple photographs into one--in post processing--in order to create the finished result. Sometimes it’s a matter of capturing a better expression in one image and then combining it with another photo where the positioning is better. In other cases, we’re combining a backdrop scene with the image of your baby. This is done both for aesthetic effect, and also to ensure your child’s safety. Not only are we highly skilled at wielding a camera, but we are trained to ensure baby is kept happy, comfortable, and safe throughout the session. For example, the froggy pose appears as if the newborn is holding their head on their hands by themselves, when in fact, it is two images placed together.
