Getting your newborn posing right is only one half of a great image – you still have to press the shutter! And which angle you use when you press that shutter can make or break your image.

In today’s behind-the-scenes video, Lisa shows you, in first-person view, the best angles you can use when photographing newborns on the bean bag, what to look out for as you move around the baby, and also the angles to avoid.

Using different camera angles is a great way to maximize the number of images you can produce with just one pose, which lends great variety to the gallery you present to your newborn photography clients.

So get out your bean bag and doll, and start practicing!
