Baby photo: The best deals for the cute baby

When you take a baby photo, sometimes they don't turn out quite the way you planned, like that washed out look you sometimes get from using too much light. Or, we forget the importance of the right outfit for that special baby photo we would like to enter in a contest. We'll discuss this more below.

When outdoors, it is better to take a baby photo in the shade. Use a flash to lighten the harsh shadows of direct sunlight. The prettiest time to photograph outdoors is during the early morning and two hours before dusk.

Clothing choices are important when taking a baby photo. The colors that tend to photograph the best include bright blues, sky blues and reds. Solid colors or small print tend to photograph better than busy fabrics, which may take the attention away from baby.  Make sure the clothing fits well.  While something around the collar area or shoulders photographs well, avoid overpowering baby with too many frills.  If the outfit is fancy, the background should be kept simple. The shoes and socks, if any, should match and the hair should be kept neat and simple.  Long sleeves tend to be more flattering in photographs than short sleeves.

If your planning to enter your baby photo in a contest, make sure the picture you enter looks good on a page. Make sure it is not too small, not too dark. There are many programs available that let you crop your picture and generally make it look better. If you have scanned a photograph, make sure that you crop the image to just include the photograph and not all the white background.
