Hey, knackered mums, photo beginners, and pros! Ever tried to snap your bub mid-meltdown and ended up with a pic that’s all blur and no cute? Oh, I’ve been there—new mum haze, bub screaming, and me fumbling my phone. After 10+ years and workshops with world-renowned photographers (where I still had to figure out the real baby-calming hacks myself), I’ve nailed a pose that settles bubs fast and gets those adorable shots. There’s a pro twist that makes clients say “awwwwwh!” (my course spills it!), and my free masterclass shows you the basics. Click below for my free 30-min video to snap calm cuteness!
Why This Pose Works
A killer pose saves your sanity—here’s why it’s gold:
- Quick: 3 mins to calm and snap—no endless rocking.
- Simple: No fancy gear—just a blanket and your arms.
- Wow: Peaceful pics that glow—mums save memories, pros keep clients smiling!
Other tips might say wait for the perfect nap or splurge on props—nah, my way’s cozier, simpler, and actually works when bub’s having a moment. Let’s soothe those bubs and snap the love!
1. Swaddle Snug
- Struggle: Fussy bub won’t settle—wiggles everywhere, pics a mess.
- Fix: Wrap bub tight but comfy—arms in for newborns, out for older bubs. If they’re wriggly, try a stretchy wrap—works like magic!
- Tip: Swaddle halfway for older bubs—legs free, arms snug—happy medium.
2. Cradle Hold
- Struggle: Bub’s still fussing—can’t get a steady shot.
- Fix: Hold bub close to your chest, rock gently—your heartbeat calms them. If they’re still fussy, try a soft bounce—mimics womb vibes.
- Tip: Hum a lullaby—your voice is their fave sound.
3. Cheek Peek
- Struggle: Good hold, but the pic’s still blah.
- Fix: Lay bub on your shoulder, cheek out—snap that sleepy glow. Make sure their little toes peek out if they’re in a cute outfit—adorable detail!
- Tip: Side-light it—window glow on their cheek, pure magic.
