Learn Newborn Photography with my Training & Workshops.
If you are looking to specialise in the art of newborn photography then my training and workshops are for you. Perfect for a those that are just starting out in the newborn photography industry and also for those more established but looking to built upon their existing skillset and offer a mindful and natural approach.
On the Newborn Photography 121 training and workshops, you will learn my natural newborn method. The only props I use is a bean bag and parents arms. Let me show you how you can get a lovely big gallery full of variety for each and every client without having to endure 4 hour photoshoots. With my training, you will learn not only how to pose baby naturally but also how to photograph those in-between moments of love and connection that make each session unique.
I work with natural light as this is what my studio has been built around. Lovely big windows that bring in gorgeous light. If you are not used to natural light – do not panic. Light is light. You can still learn so much from the workshops and 121 training – do not let that put you off. I will always give guidance about where your soft box should be but ultimately you will need to practice in your own studio.
Editing your newborn images can sometimes feel daunting. But I will tell you all the camera settings that I recommend for each image. You will learn how to get it so beautiful in camera that editing is a breeze. Your workflow will be simplified and you will walk into your photoshoots with confidence. Did you know that my photoshoots are rarely more that 2 hours long? I go into each photoshoot relaxed and confident of complete success every time.
Should I get newborn photography training?
Yes, of course you should get newborn photography training! I get it, the expense. There is so much free literature available on line nowadays but lets be honest – that is no where near enough. If you are planning to take money off clients then you have their memories in your hands. You must look after these and ensure that you are capturing quality, professional and stunning images that they can look back on forever.
Natural Baby Photography Training
Just because it is natural newborn photography, it doesn’t mean that you don’t have to pose baby. In fact, getting your posing, lighting, composition and settings correct is even more vital. Simplicity demands perfection. Natural doesn’t mean letting baby flap about. My gentle posing method means that we rarely touch baby, we use a few gentle poses and move ourselves or the beanbag! It is liberating I promise!
