6 Month Baby Photos – Five Moments You Must Capture(*6*)
At six months old your baby will have developed their own little personality. Around this time, they’ll learn to sit unaided and have lots of wonderful expressions to share.
This is a great time to capture a set of milestone photographs- pictures that capture all of those new skills your baby has developed and record how your baby has grown.
In this article I’m going to share five moments not to miss at 6Months YouFind my must-take photos of babies under 3 months here.
Sitting Up
Your baby’s favourite new trick will be sitting up unaided around this age. You may notice that they are tired quickly so make sure you have a place ready for them to sit. Then, when they’re well fed and rested sit your baby in the space you’ve created and snap away.
Talk to your baby while you’re photographing them so you can capture their beautiful expressions.
On their stomachs
By now your baby will be pushing themselves up when they’re on their tummy and may even be trying to crawl! It’s a great time for you to capture your baby as they explore and experiment in their immediate environment.
As you photograph your baby on their tummy do try experimenting with angles to capture different perspectives – the photograph you take when you’re down at their level will be very different to one you take from above.
On Their Back
Babies are great fun to watch when they’re lying on their backs at this age. They will play with their feet almost all the time, which is great to capture!
You can sit back and watch your baby entertain themselves. You should have some beautiful photos.
The Tiny Details
As I discussed in my post about must take photographs at 3-months old, the tiny details such as baby’s hands and feet are also wonderful to capture. And you’ll be able to see just how much your baby has grown when you compare the photographs of their feet and hands from 3 months to 6Months
Favorite Books and Toys
As at 6Capturing your baby with their favorite toys and books for a few months will help you keep a record of what they loved at that age. If you capture these photographs regularly you’ll have a record of what your baby enjoyed through their first year, Perhaps it’s the book you always read at bedtime, a favourite teddy or both.
More than You
These tips will help you take beautiful photos of yourself. 6Month-old baby
If you’d prefer to invest in some professional baby photographs, now is the ideal time to do it. There are two options: 6 and 10 months of age, when your baby can confidently sit up but isn’t yet crawling is one of the best times for a baby photo shoot. Your baby will happily engage with the camera, show us all of the gorgeous expressions, but won’t get frustrated because they want to crawl away.
