Photo Tips

Photo Requirements
If you have any questions about your photos, please contact me and I will help you figure it out.

A 1200x1800 pixel image is required to get the best quality for your 4-inch x 6-inch print (at 320dpi). A higher resolution is even better. A lower resolution may work for a collage design, which incorporates several smaller size photos. 

General tips

Lighting
Natural lighting is the best for great photos.Try to take photos early in the mornings or in
the evening before the sun sets, and always use your flash for while outside.
Use as much natural lighting as possible, when photographing indoors and  you can use
additional lighting to brighten an area.

Keep it Simple
Keep the background & clothing  as simple as possible. Patterns can be
distracting and take away from the subject of the photo. Place your baby on a
light-colored or plain black, non-distracting background. A light colored blanket is perfect.


Get a Close Up
Ensure the subject of the photo is at eye level and focus on the eyes.
Avoid photographing from above when photographing babies and toddlers - be sure to get down
to their level.

Take lots of photos!
Sometimes it takes 100's of photos to get that perfect shot! The great thing about digital is you can delete as you go.
