How to Photograph a Newborn Baby (My workflow & Wrapping technique & Newborn Photoshoot BTS)

In this video I'm showing you Behind the Scenes moments during a real newborn photoshoot. I'm also sharing my workflow with you when I'm photographing newborn babies and I'm sharing my favorite wrapping technique with you. How do you become a newborn photographer? Watch this video!
I'm a full-time photographer in the Netherlands and I'm planning on showing you a but more of my life as a photographer. Are you interested in photography? Are you looking for a free-online Photography course? Do you want to see the inside of a Photo Studio? Then please, watch my videos and subscribe to my channel!
I'm planning on sharing videos in which I show you my typical work-week as a photographer. I will give you tips & tricks concerning photography, photo shoots, backdrops, studio props, camera settings (iso, aperture, shutter speed, white balance), photoshoot outfits, photoshoot make-up etc.
Bedankt voor het kijken! Ik ben een full-time fotograaf in Nederland en ik wil je graag iets meer laten zien over mijn werk als fotograaf. Wil je meer weten over (digitale) fotografie? Wil je weten hoe een fotostudio er van binnen uitziet? Ben je op zoek naar een gratis online cursus fotografie? Kijk dan mijn videos en abonneer je op mijn kanaal. Ik zal videos maken over camera instellingen (iso, sluitertijd, diafragma, wit-balans), studio achtergronden, fotoshoot outfits, fotoshoot make-up enz.
IMPORTANT
If you are interested in photographing newborn babies yourself I would highly recommend you to first learn about photography in general. Master you camera, photograph in the Manual mode, learn about aperture, iso, shutter speed, white balance, light and composition. Take photos of your friends (adults or very patient older kids) and make sure you don't have to think about your camera anymore when photographing babies. Learn about editing as well. Please, don't experiment photographing Newborn babies without training. Attend a workshop by an experienced and professional photographer with an expertise in Newborn Photography. Learn about the anatomy of babies and invest in good quality cameras, lenses and props. Babies are extremely vulnerable and small and their safety and comfort should be your highest priority. Start with simple poses and make sure you know and understand that many 'pinterest poses' are composites. Please, don't try this at home. If you want beautiful photos of your own Newborn Baby, I highly recommend you to hire a professional and experienced photographer who is trained and specialised in Newborn Photography.

What lenses are you using ? And what’s your favourite lenses for newborn, sitter and cake smash photos

[@annickce2623]

THE WICKFREE CANDLE CHICK - INDEPENDENT SCENTSY DIRECTER She mentionned it was the 24-70

[@FennaPhotography]

Yes, during a newborn session I mostly use the 24-70mm F2.8 lens. For macro shots (which I didn't show in this video) I use a Tamron 90mm macro lens

[@Thewickfreechick]

Annick Cé oh I must have missed it sorry.

[@Thewickfreechick]

Fenna&Photography thank you lovely lady

[@sadiashahjahan4234]

Such an amazing person you are.. haven't seen anyone guiding this greatt !!!!!♥️♥️♥️

[@marcymaloy9400]

I was a professional photographer for 40 years and then I had an accident and now I have a spinal cord injury so I am in a wheelchair but Learning to walk with a cane. I came across your video and started thinking that maybe I could shoot newborn babies… I never did before… I was an advertising photographer. I'm really inspired by your videos. Thank you very much. I subscribed and will be watching more of your videos

[@ssbiswas132]

A great decision you made. Wish you all the best.

[@RaheelaKhaan]

Best wishes ❤

[@kendramanuel968]

I pray I get to see your work. Im sure it will be spectacular

[@FamilyonStandby]

Love how much you advocate for newborn's safety. It's not talked about enough! Our little one will be arriving any day and we cannot wait to actually be able to photograph him and our toddler together for the first time.

[@jasonhoh2508]

I appreciate BTS shoots like this. Makes you feel connected to what the actual photographer is actually doing, which is a very refreshing perspective from always just seeing final results. Thank you!

[@michelleschutta202]

Thank you for your hospitality to making videos for everyone, I truly appreciate it..

[@marijasikavica92]

looove how gentle you are and making everyone comfy :))) because of this video now I know wich direction I have to go to become a new born photographer 💖 thank you

[@suzyrr54]

I love how much you think on the safety of the parents baby’s n their comfort all photographers should make us feel like that

[@sarahlloyd617]

I have been “binge”watching your videos on the train on the way to work and at night for the last week or so! What i love is how gentle you are with the babies. How considerate and respectful you are of them as people rather than just a subject to photograph. I watched a tutorial on another channel recently on how to wrap a baby and I could not understand how the baby stayed asleep because it was moved around so much! Also, it was so tightly wrapped I cringed. I love your videos, your personality and passion shines through.

[@FennaPhotography]

I just read this comment and this means so much to me! Thank you for your kind words!

[@sumybus9652]

I saw the video that you're talking about and I agree! I cringed a little watching it, I felt like it was a little rough. This video was amazing! I am a fan

[@lindseysmith8740]

I have been starting newborn photography for the last year or so. It has been so stressful trying to master all of these "popular poses". I am so grateful you helped met to see how simple it can be, and that it doesn't have to be complicated. Thank you for sharing your experience and expertise. I really appreciate it!

[@pollietingtingkwok5921]

Absolutely correct! I really dont like photographers posing the babies in a difficult way and i dont think the babies are comfortable! Love your value and your attitude~ Look forward to more sharing!

[@adrianaochoa8184]

Love love love! Thank you so much for this video!

[@KellseyH]

I've been following and binge watching your videos for a while now. I just creeped your website and I'm flabbergasted at how little you charge! Your work is worth SO MUCH more! You do amazing work.😍

[@meganorsi8591]

LOVE your videos! I'm currently saving for the D750, and I'm so happy to hear that you use this model as well

[@seamydobbsno1]

Your soft voice makes it seem your perfect for this work. Kind of outside my genre of interest, but i watched the whole video and have since had friends ask me to photograph their newborn... Thanks for all the tips!! Great Video.

[@geralynrose8303]

Thank you so much Fenna for this video! Your tips are really helpful to newbie photographer like me. Hope to learn more about newborn photography from you. You're such an inspiration. I always look forward to all your tips and creativity. More power!

[@kaylamichellemcneil8251]

Thank you Fenna, great video! Good to see how you make wonderful stress free poses! So hard when baby doesn't want to do certain poses, I think it's best to just keep it simple 😍😘 xx

[@Fulcrumexe]

Great video. I'll definitely follow your tips. I'm planning to do a diy photoshoot with my baby. I'm so happy I watched your video. Your personality, your gentleness and your sweet voice is amazing! I loooooove it!

[@Manders160]

Love the safety tips in addition to the photography. Thanks for posting!

[@Thewickfreechick]

[@arielkort7676]

[@vanesaacuna7809]

This video is so amazing!! I watch it before every newborn session and it helps so much!!

[@Adcards]

Hi, I love watching you vlogs. I really love how you advocate for the babies and kids as well as promoting their safety! Love your diy's as well, they inspired my sons/nieces 2 year old photos shoot. I made the floral circles with eucalyptus it was my first time ever using it! I loved it, thank you and keep being amazing! Greetings from Texas, USA!

[@FennaPhotography]

That's so lovely to hear. Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad I could inspire you to create something beautiful as well!

[@naomisahlstrom]

You do AMAZING work! I wish you were closer to take photographs of our 2.5 wk newborn baby! The way you are so gentle and slow and calm handling the baby must make parents feel very much at ease (I know I would!) and lends itself well to these serene images! 😍

[@midorisphoto]

I really love your video, beautifully done! I love your way of photography, SAFETY! Thank you very much for putting up this!

[@annickce2623]

Thank you again for this. I did a sitter session 2 days ago with all your tips and keeping all natural. I am soooo in love with the pictures!! Thanks again!

[@FennaPhotography]

That's wonderful! The sitter age is so much fun!

[@lotus1695]

Great Fenna. Thank you so much! Lots love from Austria.

[@babymwah-official4716]

Love your patience and kindness 12:48 ..... keep up the good work !!

[@storiesofblue]

I love how you thought of everything for your business. Corner for older siblings to play, studied babies anatomy to be as safe as possible. What a show of professionalism, I love it!

[@teyaparker3872]

Such valuable information Fenna, thanks so much for sharing and for giving us such great free content. I love your baby-led approach and also really like your workflow and focus on simple poses and wrapping. That’s how I’m liking to do it too so far. Thanks again for always sharing high quality and super useful content! 😊

[@jennawilliams9633]

I just came from a video where the poses were cute but kind of over the top. I love how you kept things simple and beautiful

[@danielcole3764]

Thanks for all the tips... They are all very valuable... Love every part of the tutorial

Very well done and I learnt so much that I had not from many other videos. I really liked how much you emphasized on the safety and also having learnt first aid. Thank you. 💖💐🙏🏼

[@HopePhotoG]

[@alexandrelima439]

Love it! Thanks for sharing! A hug from Brazil!

[@ninadrs9233]

[@suhasvardhan]

You have a very good studio setup and the needy things to the baby and parents. Inspiration to budding new born photographers like me. Love from India

[@jetzycabrera8229]

I love this video. The way you work with babies is so nice and safe.

[@arbull7264]

I loved the simplicity of your shooting positions of the baby

[@MichelleCoxPhotography]

Great tips here! I rarely do newborn photography but I love all of the tips if it ever comes up!

[@FennaPhotography]

Great to hear!

[@kanhaiyalalsalunke3561]

Thanku so much fenna for guidence......great shoot

[@mitasmocktail]

I am watching your video for the first time and I am loving your videos. Your way of explanation is so simple and easy. I like the fact in baby's photoshoot baby's comfort matters a lot rather than taking too complicated poses which might makes baby uncomfortable. Great work!!! Thank you so much...

[@darysol2809]

Amazing! Thank you for share Fenna. Blessings from Costa Rica🇨🇷

[@FennaPhotography]

Thank you!

[@s1eepymommaaa]

[@wibblewobble489]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I'm just starting out photographing my reborn dolls and while they are very different from a real baby in the safety requirements and poses they can achieve, i've learned a lot in this and all your other vids i've been binge watching and im so excited to try getting some realistic pics of my dolls.

[@TheREALycorona559]

[@melbawells5472]

I Love how gentle you are. I see some people wrapping babies so roughly. I want to just stop these people. Thank you for your teachings.

[@allykatblue]

Love your comments about the less natural poses! I thought it was strange when I realised how they do some of them. I’m here hoping to pick up tips for doing some DIY!

[@forkeMuffin]

I love the approach. Best for the baby, not the fancy poses.

[@susannesfamilienfotografie7211]

[@WendyHvA]

Hele leerzame video weer! Dank je voor de tips, i love it!

[@wellwhatthen10101]

Like a breath of fresh air. At last someone that has the common sense to put the care of the newborn first and not the photograph, all newborns are a delicate item and should be respected, Far to many so called baby photographers are more concerned about what they want and how they think how they should pose the baby. The little ones will always find the best comfort position by themselves most of the time, that's all that is needed is a helping hand. Great work keep it up

[@maihayashi1500]

Thank you for sharing!! I had great time 🥰

[@VictoriaKempPhotos]

I am enjoying your videos. I am without a studio for the first time in 4 years as we live in a small house waiting to build a barn house behind this old house. My new house will have a 16 x 24 studio and your videos are very helpful to see how you have arranged your studio and work stations. I do newborns, family , pregnancy and weddings in Granbury Texas. I love your thoughts on posing too, I don't do the other poses as well, for the same reasons.

[@sarahssunnysideofthemounta2154]
