Why Fixing Mistakes Saves Your Pics (and Sanity!)
Screw-ups steal time and joy—dodge ‘em like this:
- Fast: 5-min tweaks—no redo tears when bub’s fussy.
- Cheap: Home fixes—zero cash, all cozy vibes.
- Real Deal: Pro shots, no stress—works in any messy nook!
Other tips suggest needing a pro or expensive gear—mine’s simple, free, and nails it. Let’s fix those pics!
1. Blurry Blues – Steady Up
- Mistake: Shaky hands—smeary shots that hide those grins (I’ve trashed heaps!).
- Fix: Hold phone with both hands, elbows on a table if needed—steady as, crisp every time. DSLR? Shutter 1/250 or up, no wobbles.
- Tip: Wipe that lens—pockets muck it up, sharp pics come free!
Mums, save those smiles; pros, client-ready—pure joy!
2. Same-Old Snap – Mix It Up
- Mistake: Bed-blanket rut—every pic looks the same, no variety (clients hate this!).
- Fix: Prop bub on a pillow, partner holds for a giggle—new angles, fresh looks, no bed blah. Layer a knit blanket—texture pops!
- Tip: Shoot overhead or side—lifts the vibe, weekly shots glow different!
Beginners, variety wins; pros, IG-worthy—too easy!
3. Cry Chaos – Calm First
- Mistake: Snapping a screamer—red-face flops, time wasted (been there, stressed out!).
- Fix: Wrap snug—sleepy in seconds (peek my wrap at https://www.jessicajanephotography.com.au/how-to-do-newborn-photography-wrap/). Shush like a vacuum—white noise settles fast.
- Tip: No dummy? Breastfeed break—calm bub, snap quick, memories saved!
Mums, less fuss; pros, gold shots—total breeze!
4. The Sneaky One – Lighting Oops (Tease!)
- Mistake: There’s a lighting slip-up everyone misses even the pros—flattens pics, kills the glow (you’ll spot it everywhere once you know!).
- Fix: My course cracks it—simple tweak, huge diff, no gear needed. Hint: it’s not just brightness in the wrong areas!
