Photo Taking Tips
Camera Setting
It is very important to set your digital camera to the highest resolution setting possible with the least amount of compression. Images need to be at least 1800x1200 pixels at 300dpi for a 4x6 photo to get the best quality. A higher resolution works even better! This will ensure that your photos will print clearly and fits in your design correctly.
Lighting
Using natural light will often produce the best photograph. Take your baby's photo near a bright window or a room lit up by natural sunglight. Avoid direct sunlight. Use of a soft light from a lamp is better than flash. Proper lighting can help avoid blurry and grainy photos
Background
Since the focus of the photograph should be on your subject avoid using backgrounds with lots of distraction. Use a white or light solid colored blanket or sheet as the backdrop. If photographing your baby dress them in solid colored outfits or no outfit at all. Get down to your baby's level while taking the photograph. You can photograph your baby in a sitting or lying position. Use a pillow, sofa or chair covered with a sheet or blanket to prop your baby up. Sleeping babies can also make beautiful photo announcements. Center the baby in your photo. Make sure all you can see if the baby and the backdrop in the photo. Take lots of photos in order to capture the perfect shot.
Process time
Once payment, information and photos are received, you will receive a proof via email within 2 business days.
