Each baby has their own unique traits and style, and each baby BOY has their own spunky side as well! Here are 3 great Baby Boy Photo Ideas to liven up your shoots.
First: The right color palette. Each photographer and child has a particular style they prefer and finding the right colors for that style allows the images to turn out just right! Let your backdrops and flooring be a contrasting color and shade from the outfits and props. For example, If you are considering a classic/vintage style of your photo session, a light/dark brown or light grey background and flooring will be great color to render contrast to the subject. Remember, there are more colors for boys than just blue!
Second, keep it simple. Props and outfits are important in children photography but you never want them to completely distract from the beautiful babies! Just like with makeup, it’s great when it’s used to enhance the beauty that’s already there! Don’t overwhelm a shot with too many extra additions or colors.
Third, using proper props. I know, I know I just said that you should keep it simple. That’s why you need just the right simple props such as vintage boxes, snuggle tubs, chaise lounges, or oversized posers. All these prop and furniture pieces are simple enough to not take away from the little ones, while having a beautiful place for babies to nestle in and toddlers to climb on. Keep them entertained with the perfect teddy bears or blocks and dress them in classic attire like jeans, hats, and bowties.
Bring a touch of them to the shoot. Including their favorite blanket or toy can make them feel comfortable without taking away from your beautiful furniture or prop pieces.
Lastly: Don’t forget to let boys be boys!
