When Should My Child Be Photographed?
The Seven Ages Of Childhood The Milestones of childhood can never be repeated. But they can be
captured in portraits that tell the story of a child growing up...as
he or she passes through a series of stages...moving ever closer to
adulthood.
Your Baby's First Year ... At no time during your child's life will physical changes occur so
rapidly. In what seems like the blink of an eye, a tiny, helpless
bundle is transformed into an active, robust and inquisitive
youngster.
 |
3 Months
At three months babies are fresh, new human beings.
Everything in their world is brand new ... starting to
become familiar ... but often strange. They are totally
dependent on the important people in their lives,
recognizing their family members, and just beginning to
respond to others.
A three months portrait will preserve that time of newness.
And when photographed with one or more parents or siblings,
a portrait at this age will capture forever that fleeting
time when family members are the center of your baby's
intimate world. |
 |
6
Months
By the sixth or seventh month babies are so lovable! Cuddly
and responsive, yet still dependent ... strengthened muscles
let them sit up and take part in the world around them.
Care-free and happy-go-lucky, they crave attention and
delight in having an audience. Portraits at this age are a
perfect time to reveal chubby little arms and legs - and
even backsides! |
 |
9
Months
Around the ninth month many babies begin to strike out on
their own. Still dependent on their parents, but starting to
explore an ever-expanding world ... well on the way to
becoming a real little person and letting everyone know "you
won't hold on to me for long!" |
 |
1
year
At one year the permanent facial characteristics begin to
reveal a family likeness and individual character ... still
a baby, yet emerging as a robust and inquisitive child who
is ready to meet the world. For the child who is now
walking, the perfect message of the portrait is "I'm free!" |
 |
2
years
Around the second birthday a major milestone is achieved as
the child begins to speak. The toddler now responds to
reason, humor, and action ... beginning to explore a
widening world. |
 |
4
years
Between the third and fourth birthdays is the cutest, most
endearing age for "little" boys and girls. With the ability
to speak and reason growing stronger every day, these
youngsters now display individuality of character and action
that should be portrayed before the baby teeth are lost and
replaced by permanent ones ... forever altering the
endearing look of early childhood.
|
 |
7
years
During the seventh year the snaggly tooth age ends and
permanent teeth emerge to change the facial contours. A
developing mind reveals a more mature, inquiring outlook.
Now off to school and making their way in the world ...
portraits at this age can show the special interests that
help to define who they are.
|
 |
12 years
As the twelfth year progresses the child is about to enter
the teenage years ... a kind of dress rehearsal for
adulthood ... when physical, emotional, and attitude changes
occur. The child you know so well is about to become a more
complex and less dependent young person. Peer acceptance is
now important, and portraits can capture the child's sense
of style and expanding horizons.
|
 |
16 years
By Sixteen childhood is all but a memory. The boy is almost
a man ... in his interest, his attitudes, his thinking.
Carefree years, yet ones that anticipate the challenges of
adulthood on the horizon. The young woman is now "sweet
sixteen", an unforgettable age when she blossoms into
womanhood. Still a lifetime of growing and learning
ahead...but never again a child.
So begin planning now for the most important portraits in
your child's life. You'll always be glad you did!

When You Take Photograph For Your Child
There's no doubt that kids make the best subjects for photography.
They're cute, adorable and spontaneous. They also make the worst
subjects mostly because they're easily bored. For great pictures of
your children with minimal grief, follow these tips:
-
Ah, the great outdoors: It's big out there. Don't make the mistake
of standing so far away that little Brandies gets lost in the
picture. Step up and fill the frame with her smiling face (and dirty
hands).
-
Keep it simple: Outdoors, shoot downward from eye-level to use plain
green grass. Or walk around until you find an angle that gives you a
pleasing, non-intrusive background.
-
Beached? Waterlogged? There are some places you just don't want to
take your regular camera. For those times, consider single-use
cameras.
-
Level the playing field: Instead of always shooting down at your
child, crawl around with him for a while. Snap some playtime photos
from his perspective; it's a whole new world down there.
-
I can't believe it! When you come across one of those 'kids do the
darndest things' moments, don't rush to the rescue, rush to the
camera.
