Creating the perfect baby portrait, when done right, will certainly be rewarding.

One of the most important factors in photographing babies is patience and the way you apply child psychology when relating to the baby.

Babies over six months may be shy and won’t react well to a complete stranger. Shooting a portrait of a newborn baby can be difficult. Babies seven months or older can be very tricky to shoot.

Parents may be worried about the affect of studio lights on their baby. Don’t ever handle a baby without the parents consent. If you plan to resell the baby photograph to an agency make sure you get a release form signed from the parents.

For baby portraits to be sellable they must be technically perfect, but the picture must illustrate the baby being active or some form of child care. (TJ Tierney is an award winning Irish Landscape photographer)

A Tips..Buying Baby Gear

Buying baby gear can be a frustrating experience for new parents who want to have the best for the baby, yet they still have to watch their budget. They need to buy baby furniture, such as a crib or bassinet, a change table and a playpen.

Parents also like to purchase a baby swing and a stroller for taking the baby for a walk. A cheaper alternative to a stroller is a baby sling where you can carry the baby comfortably and still keep him/her nestled close to you.

Other supplies that you need include baby clothes. Babies grow a lot in the first few months, so it is really a waste of money to buy a lot of outfits in newborn sizes. Then you can pack it away for the next baby.

A crib is necessary for when the baby gets older, but for a newborn a bassinet is a good choice to make.

How to Have a Baby Girl – Choose the Sex of Your Baby

By following these three simple all natural steps you can increase the odds of having the baby girl you desire. If you want a baby girl you just need to:

  • Stop having sex three days before you ovulate. You’ll need to take the time to pinpoint your ovulation by keeping basal body temperature charts. The idea here is that the sperm that will produce a girl or the (x) sperm is stronger and longer lived then the sperm that will result in a boy, therefore by abstaining from sex for those three days you give the weaker (boy) sperm time to die off leaving only the (x) girl sperm the opportunity to fertilize the egg.
  • Control the ph of the vagina at the time of fertilization. By creating a vaginal environment that is more acidic the boy (y) sperm find it impossible to survive, which again leaves only the (x) or girl sperm the chance to fertilize the egg resulting in a girl baby.
  • Having sex in the proper position to give the(x) girl sperm the best chance of successfully fertilizing the egg. Generally giving the sperm a longer distance to travel and a hostile environment favors having a girl baby.

Conclusion: Using this method, called the Shettles Method, after the man who developed it, really favors having a girl baby more than a boy baby.

So if a girl baby is what you need to balance your family, using these techniques can raise your odds of success from about 50/50 to over 94%.

If you decide to take action and not just leave it to chance, I truly hope you succeed and have that beautiful little baby girl you desire! (Jerry Lindenburger).
