First, it’s important to know all you can about your photographer and their credentials. You want to make sure that your photographer is trained in posing newborns safely. It’s also a good idea to make sure they have experience working with children. I also think it’s important to find someone who specializes in a certain area of photography that you’re interested in. Typically, trained photographers will post this on their website along with their expereince and continued education in their field.
