Creative a Baby Photo Series

Create an everlasting keepsake of your child’s growth by designing your own photo series.


Commit to a daily, weekly or monthly schedule

Our ability to remember calendar events was blurred with a newborn, and if I’m being honest, it still isn’t quite as sharp as it used to be. we was aware enough the day she was born to recall that it was a Saturday, so we knew that if we took my photo every weekend we would stay on track. If you’re planning to photograph once a month, you can aim to take your photo on the child’s “monthly birthday.” And of course you can do your image on an annual basis such as how my friend Emily documents her growing family with an annual photo series scheduled to coincide with her wedding anniversary.

- Choose an item for scale, and a style for your photograph

Most often, I see babies propped in a chair photographed beside a cute stuffed animal. It’s easy, it’s cute, consistent, and when you flip back through the photos you can see how much the kid has grown compared to the static objects. Instead of a particular “staged” area, I chose to be the consistent “object” of my daughter’s photo shoot, holding her in my lap week after week to show her growth relative to me.

One awesome benefit to not having committed to using a chair or staged area in my home was that I could do this photo shoot anywhere, anytime. I could plan the shoot for when the natural daylight was best, and when she herself was agreeable to the idea of being snuggled and photographed.

- Have the right equipment, and a consistent setup

It was about at this time that my camera became permanently attached to the tripod. Because of this, we was always ready to roll when the lighting was right. I set the camera on the lowest tripod height for consistency, and always placed it about 15-feet away from the object (us) which usually framed me nicely in the shot as we sat cross-legged on the ground.

Having a friend or spouse handy to help take the picture is really helpful because 90% of your energy will be going into making sure the baby is smiling or happy, while another 9% will be focused on making sure you yourself don’t look like a crazy person. If you have a remote for the shutter, or if you can bluetooth your phone to your camera, you can try your best to get a good shot, but I found that having another person operate the shutter helped guarantee that we were centered in-frame, the background was what I wanted it to be, we were focused, and (most importantly) looking reasonably pulled together.

Style-wise, the only consistent elements were me, sitting cross-legged and holding my child, who was always wearing a white onesie.

- Be diligent about archiving

It’s really easy to let time pass by without uploading those photos and editing down to a handful of good images. Keeping up to date on archiving them on your computer, on social media, or elsewhere, is critical to organization. Use a good naming structure and compile all of the images in a single folder on your computer for all of those times in the future that you’ll want to browse through those images.

A printed archive was important for me too, so I labeled each print with the same general information for future reference.

Take your photo collection a step further by making a custom-bound baby book (or book commemorating any family occasion) that can sit on your shelf.
