Photography Tip: Posing Babies

POSINGBABIES
For this week’s #AskAliceShesNice, a simple and sweet tip photographing the littlest ones in your life…
Q:  I’d love to get a shot with my newborn and my 18 month old.  The problem is that my older child is too squirmy and I’m afraid he’ll drop him!
My Tip:  Often times, it is too much to ask your 1st baby to gently hold their new 7lb brother or sister for an extended period of time.  An easy tip would be to have an adult prop the two children from behind so you can assure both are safely secure in her arms.  Come in close and wait for that magical moment to happen, because it inevitably always does… And when it does, it will melt your heart.  #aliceparkphotography
Camera Settings:  Canon 5D MkIII, 85mm 1.2L, shot indoors at ISO 500, f/1.8, 1/320 on a sunny day with the window placed behind the subjects.
