Even if you have a high-quality digital camera, having a professional shoot your pictures makes a huge difference. Image quality is only a small part of the equation. To have a photo that is truly memorable, the lighting, pose and background all need to be right. And after the photo shoot your newborn photographer Melbourne will know how to retouch things to ensure things look perfect.

Taking photos in the home is a popular options with new parents. This is a comfortable atmosphere and most photographers will have portable backgrounds to use during the shoot. You may also choose an outdoor setting, either at your home or in a park or playground. Your photographer will likely be able to suggest good locations.

The pictures can also be taken in a studio. One of the hottest trends in newborn photography is posing the baby in snuggly costumes. You've likely seen some examples of these online. Babies dressed as veggies, animals and the like. They make for a truly memorable portrait you'll want to share with family and friends.

So where do you go to find a newborn photographers Melbourne? Most turn to the internet. This is a good route as you'll be able to quickly find who is nearby, but also you'll be able to check out examples of their work online. Check to see if they do in fact specialize in newborns. Babies require special skills so make sure they have plenty of experience. If the majority of their work isn't newborns, you might want to look elsewhere.

Once you've narrowed things down to about three, contact them to set up a phone or in-person interview. This is an important step. Photography is an intimate art so you need to be comfortable with the person you choose. If you don't feel it, move on to the next candidate. It can really make all the difference in the final output.

Of course pricing is an important aspect of the interview. Don't be timid about asking about the session price and printing prices. Some photographers will allow you to simply buy the digital files and do the printing yourself. You'll pay a bit more for the session, but if you plan to print a lot of copies, this may be the least expensive way to do things. Also ask about retouching experience. No matter how beautiful your baby, blemishes and such will likely always show up, so retouching experience is important.
