As a photographer, we must be accused of being professional because not many times we must do a photoshoot outside our genre, like doing baby photography. It's challenging because I haven't done this baby photography before. I can decide not to take this job, but I want to challenge myself to take this genre.
The most severe difficulty comes when the baby is not in the mood. Because the baby is usually afraid of new people, so it's making some time to make a relationship with the baby. So it took almost one hour for me to get closer to the baby. So I'm doing the weird pose to make this baby laugh and feel comfortable with me. And it's tough because I'm never doing this before.
The baby itself has one years old, and her name is Sofia. This photoshoot is to celebrate the first birthday anniversary. I usually take newborn photography, and it's not as tricky when doing this session because, in newborn photography, I typically don't need to make a relationship with the baby. When doing newborn photography, the baby is in sleeping poses, and the baby doesn't feel afraid of new people because they still don't know when to do a photoshoot. Still, it's different when taking a photo shoot for a baby of one year of age.
When taking the photoshoot, Sofia was not in a good mood because her parents told me Sofia doesn't sleep until late at night, so when the photo shoot began, her spirit it's not in a good mood. When Sofia comes to the photo studio, she sleeps until her parent wakes her up. So, it takes a long time to make her in a good mood. She came at 10.00 o'clock, and the photoshoot began at 11.00 o'clock.
And here is the photos:
To make her mood still good, we make Sofia too busy with her toys. Also, we brought snacks Sofia loved. So when we take photos, Sofia gets distracted by her toys and snack and forgets to do photoshoots.
I hope you like my photos from this series.
