Selecting Melbourne Newborn Photography Services

By Jeannie Chapman


There are certain moments in life that you want to remember forever. One of the biggest is when your child is born. One way to ensure this is properly recorded is by using the right Melbourne newborn photography services so that you get the best quality pictures of this special moment.

People may wonder why you may wish to use a professional. There is the argument that a lot of people already have digital cameras and smart phones. Therefore you can take a lot of pictures yourself in order to capture the moment. However this does not necessarily work if you want a special picture that you wish to display on a wall.

This is why you should use a professional. They can use lighting and angles that can create a picture that can look very stylish. A professional can take an otherwise dull looking day, wait for the right moment and make the day look bright and enjoyable. Equally they may have a studio and take pictures inside as well.

The next thing to do is contact the companies directly. Ideally you want to meet them in person before you arrange a photography session. This will then give you an idea of whether or not you feel that they are best suited to your needs and understand what you want from them. The look of a website or a phone call is rarely enough to establish whether or not you will have the right kind of working relationship with each other.

When you look at a website look at which photos are the most prominent. This is usually a good indicator of the kind of photos that a company specialises in. Therefore you can get a good idea of the kind of style that you will get if you use that photographer. Ideally you want to narrow it down to around three options.

This is why it is a good idea to contact photographers directly. Do not be afraid to ask questions about their experience and their work. They should also have a portfolio that you can look through so you can gauge whether or not their work is appropriate for the kind of photo that you want. Another thing to consider is personal chemistry. Some people may have all the experience you want, the best photos and so on. However if you feel uncomfortable or do not feel that they are right for the work you want there is nothing wrong with walking away. You need to decide whether someone offers the service that is appropriate for you and your child.

During this meeting ask about the kind of lighting they use, the equipment they use and how long they have been involved in photography. This is usually a good indicator as the best ones will often be passionate about photography and happy to discuss their methods and their experience. Ideally they should also have a portfolio you can look through as well. They should also be able to talk about how they get children to keep calm and still while taking a photo. If they seem impatient or you do not feel a chemistry with them then you need to consider looking elsewhere.

You can find a number of Melbourne newborn photography services online. There are also numerous sites where you can get feedback from people who have used these services. Check a number of them in order to get a balanced viewpoint and find the best ones to get the best photo to celebrate a special moment with you and your newborn child.
