Please Read This about Newborn Photography Posing
I have never received as much hate mail from other photographers as I did when I posted this newborn photography posing reel.
You see, I don’t use unnatural newborn photography posing techniques. I never have, and I never will. But after reading an article from a medical journal on just how unsafe poses like the “Taco Pose” or “Froggy Pose” can be, I felt I had to say something.
Yes, I know that you can be trained to “do it right” and I know that a lot of these images are made using composites. But I feel that if you must take courses on how to not injure a baby with certain poses, maybe you just shouldn’t be using the poses at all.
Anyway, I’m sharing the reel below. Have a watch and tell me your thoughts—I’d love to know!

My Take on Newborn Photography Posing
Babies are not tacos.
So they probably shouldn’t be posed like one.
Babies are also not frogs.
So maybe putting them into a "froggy pose" is a bad idea.
Babies are not props.
They are tiny humans.
And they need to be treated with care.
I've been a newborn photographer for over 20 years!
And I've built a very successful newborn business WITHOUT using complicated, potentially unsafe, posing!
You see, I believe that babies are perfect just the way they are.
And I've developed a system for photographing newborns that showcases the natural beauty of babies in a safe and efficient way!
I would love to share my system with you.
