Oksana Derai-Fok, newborn photographer in France, la Ciotat.
I do a photo shoot of newborns in my home studio, which has everything for shooting. My style is minimalism & lifestyle.
In the frame, the main character is baby, his beauty and authenticity.
The reasons to do newborn photo shoot
- To keep this important moment in memory. The baby was born and it seems that he will be like this for a very long time. But looking back a year later, you hardly recognize the baby that was brought from the hospital. These are two huge differences! But the photos of the first days of the baby’s life will always stay with you.
- Beautiful photo materials. Today, you can make so much beauty out of photos: photo books, passepartout, collages, etc., that storing them on a computer is at least very boring.
- Family values that you create yourself. Photos that can be shown to the baby himself. When he starts to grow up, he will definitely show interest in what he was before. And it will be especially interesting for him to look at his photos on the pages of photo albums.
- Your gift to your grandchildren. It’s hard to imagine now, but your baby will grow up and have his own children. They will be especially curious to see how was mother/father as a baby.
In fact, there may be much more reasons to make a photo shoot of a newborn and everyone has their own. The main thing is that gradually more and more parents are beginning to discover this type of shooting and get wonderful photos that will become a kind of treasure for the family. They will wish to be passed down from generation to generation.
