Muslin blankets: a cute prop for baby photos
We all love to see photos of cute babies. Babies are the perfect models; there is no such thing as a “bad pose” when you are the subject of any photograph. With a keen photographic sense and some appropriate props, even a simple nap time shot can melt a million hearts. One such master accessory would be a soft cotton muslin blanket indeed!
Do you remember the incredibly adorable pictures of adorable little angels peeking out of a blanket over their heads? Or those in which they suck their thumb as if it were the tastiest thing in the world? These photos are something every parent would like to take and cherish for the rest of their lives. The problem is that not everyone gets those perfect shots. Babies cannot be steered and can lose it at any time. Whether it is the parents who take the picture or a professional photographer, they always like to make sure that the baby receives maximum comfort. That’s why blankets, particularly cotton ones, top the list of favorite accessories!
Babies, who are only a few weeks old, are at the most suitable age for a nap. If you plan on dressing up a bit, make sure the surface they are placed on is comfortable for them. Professional photographers make sure that the lighting is also soft so that it does not disturb the deep sleep required for the shoot. You can wear the swaddles over a basket, as a symbolic sling hanging from the pelican’s beaks, or you can simply wrap them around your little angel for the perfect shot. All that matters is your peaceful sleep, and you’re ready to take that frame-worthy shot.
To take artistic photos of your baby while you’re awake, you can leave them with the blanket to play while you keep clicking for the best shot. There are practically numerous ways to get cute and aesthetic photos of your baby with the blanket as a prop. Just make sure baby is having fun as we don’t like to see a teary face when smileys can win the world! If you are a creative parent, you can try more interesting things like creating a scene with clothes and blankets around your baby, just like those famous photos we have seen in recent years. Be yourself and create the perfect setting for your child to capture the moments. Why does that matter? Because your children are little for a short time and archiving these precious little moments in the cutest way possible will be an asset for a lifetime!
