Three Quick Newborn Photography Tips

Since becoming a parent I appreciate a newborn photo a lot more than I used to. I find myself looking past the redness and wrinkles searching for a preview of what's to come.

This newborn shot of my son is one of my favorites because it foreshadows his curiosity, focus and intensity (not to mention his love of giraffes and zebras).

Two and a Half Traveler's biggest fan (who also happens to be married to me), forwarded three quick tips to improve those critical first newborn photos from The Digital Photography School.

We especially love that Digital Photography School contributor Lorraine McCall understands that new parents don't have the time or attention span to handle more than three quick tips.
