Baby Full Moon Photography Skills: Shooting Location and Props

1. Choose the shooting area that can make the baby sleep peacefully.

To shoot a quiet full-moon baby, we should first choose a relatively spacious space, put her in a very comfortable and soft environment, give the baby a comfortable environment and let her sleep well. At the same time, the spacious space and background also facilitate us to take more detailed photos.

We can choose a comfortable sofa. In order to prevent the gap between the sofa backrest and the chair seat from affecting the picture effect, you can choose a piece of background flannel to spread on the sofa and build a small family studio specially for your baby. Pay attention to the background cloth must be flat, if there are many wrinkles, the picture is not exquisite enough.

3. Or take pictures of the full-moon baby in the crib. Using a simple background will make the subject more prominent, thus making the photo better. Of course, if you want to highlight the softness and texture of the full-moon baby's skin, laying a soft dark blanket will achieve good results. Dark background can easily darken the surrounding environment and highlight the baby.

4. Simple props layout

You'd better bring props when shooting at home. In order to add some interest to the baby's shooting picture, we can use baskets as props. Find some blankets, pillows or clothes to fill the basket before you put her in. You can also prepare some cute clothes and props for your baby to shoot in various ways.

Baby full moon photography skills: posing

Posing for a full moon baby should be easy. Sometimes you can put your child on the bed and capture the child's back, side, lying and crawling. Often body language is the most vivid when children move by themselves.

When they yawn and move their little hands, it is very important for the photographer to take a sharp snapshot.

In addition, when posing, we must pay attention to the baby's safety, don't hold the baby's mouth, let him vent naturally, and wait until the baby falls asleep before starting to pose. Don't swing too much at first, or you will wake the baby. We must gently swing it to reassure our parents. In this way, he will actively cooperate with you and even take the initiative to be your photography assistant, helping you constantly adjust your child's posture and put it into the posture we want.

In order to better show the baby's sleeping state, the perfect angle is to squat down and shoot. But it is very important to pay attention to the stability of the picture when shooting, and it is very important to choose a stable squat posture. You can shoot with a tripod if necessary.

Baby full moon photography skills: lighting

When shooting the baby's full moon, try to use the largest aperture and the focal length is medium focus. You can choose to shoot when the natural light is good, for example, the ambient light is dark, and the sensitivity should be improved to use it, which can improve the shutter speed and help to shoot a clear image, but it also has the disadvantage of large particles. Never use the overhead flash to avoid disturbing the baby.

Because the light in the shooting environment is chaotic, there will be stray light, and the color may be inaccurate. It is necessary to adjust the color temperature and white balance of the camera and grasp the color. Curtains, quilts, wallpaper and floors at home may reflect light on children's faces, and natural light and outdoor lighting are often used to photograph babies. When shooting with natural light, many photographers prefer to use side light, which makes their faces more layered. It's best not to use backlight, which is not very good for filling light.

If you want to use lighting to create a three-dimensional effect, and you encounter the problem of insufficient light when shooting, you may wish to place a desk lamp around the shooting space at this time. Of course, light can't be directed at the baby. At this time, you can let your mother act as a photography assistant, help you hold the desk lamp and shine it on the wall above the shooting point. The light will reflect on the baby. Note that the light should shine directly above the baby's position, which is the most suitable light source position.

In addition, to show the quietness and warmth of a full-moon baby, the picture needs to be warmer to give people a feeling of happiness and warmth. At this time, adjust the color temperature value in the camera to 4000K, and the picture will be yellow and warm. Of course, we should also pay attention to the coordination of parameters. If the warm yellow will fade due to overexposure, choose M aperture to shoot, adjust the aperture to F4, and the shutter speed is1100 second.
