<p>Hi ! My name is Jeleah<br> So , I promised to take pictures of someones newborn 6 months (well my mom signed me up to do it) I previously had ordered a beanbag and a stand from when I had a prior baby photography for a relative but got cancel. Since it got cancel I stop stressing about the stresses of getting the backdrop and props , now I have 6 month twins I have to photograph and in search of some nice backdrops , props , basket to make this shoot as professional as ever. Any one have any ideas on where I should buy these stuff. I'm not trying to dig my pockets too deep in this. But I would like a photos that resemble these props and backdrops. I was wondering if I could just use like comforters or blankets in the house. PLEASE HELP ! Really appreciate it and I know since they're 6 months the posing is going to be different but I would like some pretty backdrop colors , a nice fur and basket. Any tips , recommendations are GREATLY appreciated ! Thanks in advance. Also how big of a backdrop would I need ? My stand is 3.5 feet wide by 3 feet tall and I saw places selling backdrops by yard. </p> <p>http://abigailjoycephotography.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/abigail-joyce-photography-2DSC_9298-chicago-newborn-photographer.jpg<br> http://addtoheart.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/suquamish-newborn-photography-960x622.jpg<br> http://www.alienskin.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/anyafoto_nj-newborn-photographer_005.jpg</p> <p>http://www.studiobambino.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/01-361-post/Newborn-Photography-Cholsey-Baby-Charlotte-1024x683-393x262.jpg</p>

<p>Hi ,<br> My aunt just recently had a baby and i figured for my spring break I'll head over to her house and shoot the baby. Sort of like a gift from me to her. But unfortunately I've never photographed a baby and I think I ran into some rule breaking with this shoot I'm going to attempt.<br> 1. When I reach my aunts house for spring break the baby will be three weeks old<br> 2. I only have a 50mm 1.8 lens and a 18-55mm lens<br> 3. I just upgraded my camera body from a Canon Rebel t3i<br> to the Canon 5D Mark III so I'm still getting the hang of this camera.<br> On the postive side , I invested into this starter kit which includes cloth, vinal, pvc, beanbag, puck<br> https://www.etsy.com/listing/84768233/newborn-photography-starter-kit-includes</p> <p>So here's my big question(s)<br> Do I need to invest into studio lighting ? I'll be shooting in the house , most likely the baby nursery.<br> Can anyone suggest some prop stores , poses for a 3 week old ? ALSO ! I have a Canon Speedlite 580EX II<br> What should I do??<br> I leave for spring break in two weeks and want this to be PERFECT. (Also keep in mind I'm a college student so I have a TIGHT budget.)</p>
