I was fortunate to have an amazing photographer friend when my first baby was born--otherwise I'm pretty sure all I'd have of her was a bunch of blurry photos. Let's face it, little ones are tough to photograph. Too bad I didn't have this amazing book from photog guru Me Ra Koh.
This new-to-me book Your Baby in Pictures: The New Parents' Guide to Photographing Your Baby's First Year offers up step-by-step instructions, ideas, and inspiration for
photographing your baby's first year. In a word: Brilliant.
Aside from the gorgeous photos, you'll appreciate Me Ra Koh's simple, smart advice that gives you everything from how to pose your wee ones to the best time of day and light for both a SLR camera as well as a point and shoot all based on the age of your kids.
As a camera novice myself, I found it easy to read and follow, however even if you consider yourself a more advanced shutterbug, you'll love this book as well. I really can't think of a more helpful shower gift for new parents, whether it's their first or fourth baby. -Kristen
