1 - Beware of sharpness
In general, avoid blurring the whole picture, but if you decide to keep an area deliberately vague, it will still keep the maximum sharpness on the subject.
2 - Treat light / lighting
The light gives relief to the faces. The times of day when the light is high (between 11 and 16 hours) result
contours of shadows too marked. When night falls, it should be avoided wherever possible to use the flash that makes red-eye. To overcome the lack of light, we must therefore focus on adjuncts outdoor light as a candle or light sources further away.
3 - Treating the framing
Avoid topics centered, prefer the rule of thirds, to highlight the subject. For example: Place the baby's eyes to two thirds of the image rather than the center. Choose a picture at eye level rather than baby-cons scuba diving. To do this, do not hesitate to crouch to be at his level and move to find an angle rewarding. Similarly, a portrait of three quarters is more aesthetic than a portrait of the face (avoid the symmetry).
4 - For a portrait
Choose a look or a movement directed towards the center of the picture for a more aesthetic result.
5 - Find the right time
It is sometimes interesting to be patient and wait for the right moment to capture the attitude of fun baby, a mime, a beautiful smile. The interest is to obtain a natural posture rather than the "smile". A tip: Wait when baby is in position and plays rather than static attitudes.
6 - Caution
Think ahead to set a digital camera image resolution sufficient to eventually be printed in post if it is particularly successful.
