Hi I am expecting our First Grandchild next month and I am exploring all avenues of photography that I can do, to capture our new Grand Daughter in her perfection. I am looking at B x W mainly but would like any other suggestionns to get that perfect shot. Thanks from Ausrtalia (down under) Karenn.. HNY to all.

Hi Karenn,

You are in for some photographic fun!! I am reading everything I can find on photographing newborns, since we have a new grandchild on the way also!
Here is a link with some good tips for starters: http://www.exposureguide.com/photographing-babies.htm

Gee Thanks haven't seen this one yet. Just had a quick look then, can't wait to dig deeper. I just want some artistic shots as well as the normal things that you might expect. Again thanks. Karenn

Congrats. I did my first new born shots a couple months ago. Here is one of my favs. you need a plain back ground and will have to edit out the parents hand. Hope this helps

It was taken indoors. I used my kit lens (18-55mm 3.5-5.6).
set at 22mm F4.5 1/160 ISO 320. I had to use the flash but did not want too. Hope this helps. Take lots of photos as you can not predict a baby. I got a great 1 of him yawning.
