The Delivery – Gold Coast QLD baby photographer | New props and accessories!

We love a good prop haul and we love it when the delivery driver drops it off! I kid you not he almost didn’t deliver it because he couldn’t find the studio. So I ran out and met up with him to collect the package. Yeah I’m that keen person, patiently waiting for the packages to arrive!  We had a few newborn sessions coming up and I always try to take this opportunity to pick out something new for each baby who comes into the studio. Sometimes when it’s a last minute shoot we don’t always have the chance, but when we do. We take full advantage!

The Props

I went onto my favourite prop vendor and picked out a beaten rattan flower basket, designed for newborn babies. This prop is amazing for getting those sleepy wrapped shots or head on hands.  When this prop arrived in the studio, it was even more beautiful in person. In fact we even played ‘this or that’ using this prop and it got 100% of the votes as the preferred prop. 

To fill the basket, I selected a little baby pink frilled wrap/ basket filler. As this was for our client Elody’s newborn session. Such a beautiful layer to add a little bit of depth into any photo. 

I also picked up a little mohair outfit and matching bonnet. In the shade fawn. This outfit is absolutely the cutest thing I have ever seen. I love purchasing local and buying hand made products. This outfit is a true depiction of that. 

Lastly for this little prop haul we actually decided to do a little DIY project. My sister had send me through an inspiration picture of a swing for a baby (totally safe and used as a posed prop only). We just had to make it. So we went to Bunnings and got all the materials we needed.  Luca spent the after hand crafting this prop and ensuring it was all smoothed down. Perfect for a newborn baby. Whilst he did that I also put up our little halo and bonnet peg holder on the wall which was also a super cute project.

The planning – Burleigh Heads QLD Newborn Photography | Reeve’s Session

Jordan and Bianca are good friends of ours and when we found out the were pregnant not long after we were. We knew that we would have to squeeze in a newborn shoot for them!  Bianca, had a cesarean with her first baby and had opted for another with Reeve. Which meant we had to account for the recovery and allow an extra week before we got into the studio to photograph Reeve’s newborn session. 

But once we had the clear, we had set a date in stone. Now of course we had to plan what props and colours to use for this session and I wanted to pull some inspiration from Reeve’s family home. So a colour palette of creams, browns and blues were perfect. A little bit nautical themed…

The session

Reeve came into the studio and we started off with photographing him in the rattan rectangular basket prop. I added a little bonnet on his head too. He was so little around 3.2kg that I had to adjust the props to fit him in. After we were all finished photographing him in the props. We moved on to the posing bed. We started with bottoms up and ended with Huck Finn (bottoms down). Capturing Reeve, we managed to photograph him on a little swing prop and in a mohair outfit. He did so well.

Gold Coast QLD Newborn Photography | Baby in a Basket

The basket…

Your baby is all snuggled up in a soft wrap. They look so little! Your baby is than placed in a basket prop and photographed. Oh so cute! They look like a little bean. The focus lies on their tiny little facial features. Their nose and sweet baby ears… Tiny sleepy eyes lay shut, as they comfortably snooze away. The basket pose is terrific at showcasing your baby. It can be photographed in many different ways and styled. There are the options to use both round baskets and rectangular baskets. They can be layered with fabrics, beads or different textures. Or can be a complete minimal look. We love using different coloured wraps to change up a look. Matching them with a baby bonnet or baby flower crown. The creative decor is endless and can be personalised to your taste.

Safety  

Safety is our number one priority and we are always ensuring that we are following safe protocols when it comes to your precious newborn. We specifically design our prop set up with safety in mind. That means either using a weighted object to secure the basket. Or simply having a hands on spotter at all times.
