Lilydale Baby Photographer: A Beautiful Photoshoot with 4 month old Ryka

Parents Dad Mathews and Mum Sanchia brought their adorable 4-month-old daughter, Ryka, to our Lilydale studio for a memorable photography session. In just one hour, we aimed to create images that captured the essence of their little family and the joyful spirit of the festival happening at that time.

For those planning a photoshoot with older babies, here are some essential tips to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience:

• Prepare Outfits: Have outfits ironed and ready to wear before the session. This not only saves time but also ensures your family looks polished for every shot.
• Feeding Prior: Feed your baby directly before the session. A full tummy makes for a happy baby, perfect for capturing wide smiles and giggles.
• Coordinated Outfits: Coordinate outfits among family members. This creates a harmonious look and enhances the overall aesthetic of the family images.
• Relax and Trust the Photographer: Allow the photographer to work their magic. Some of the best moments are candid and unscripted, so trust your photographer to capture them.
• Stay Calm: Babies are sensitive and can pick up on family emotions. Staying relaxed and calm helps create a positive atmosphere for everyone.

Ryka's final images were absolutely stunning, including charming composite backgrounds. One standout image featured her in a traditional cultural outfit, beautifully reflecting the festival's spirit, while another captured her joyfully swinging, creating a delightful memory. The session turned out to be a wonderful celebration of family and the joyful moments that life brings.

We can capture beautiful images of your baby no matter the age, so don't panic if you missed the newborn stage. Call Emma in the studio on 0419 593 380 for her professional advice and recommendations for your little one.
