Like all other parents I knew that my baby was cute. Still, when I got back the baby shower pictures, I was pretty surprised. The first few baby pictures that we had taken looked like all newborn babies look. She had a pinched, scrunched up, red face, and was strange, pudgy, and wrinkly all over. After a few weeks, however, she had transformed pretty much completely. She looked very different from how she had at first. She even had a little bit of hair starting to grow in on her head!

When one of my friends first suggested that we enter her in a baby picture contest, I was not too keen on the idea right at first. I did not want her to be one of those over-pressured child actors who end up not being able to live a normal childhood.But I did realise that the baby pictures did look very good and, with a visit to a professional baby photographer, they could look even better.

Cute Baby Pictures

When we went to the photographer's office for the first time, we got to really get a look at her work. There were baby pictures all over the wall. There were cute baby pictures, ones that looked more sedate and serious, and even a few abstract studies in form that involved babies in them. It was clear right away that this woman knew her profession, and really had quite a passion for babies.

Getting your baby pictures done can be kind of a hit or miss affair especially with a newborn. If she is not in the mood for it that day, that is it.You can not make a small baby do what it doesn't want to do. Anyway, that day was a waste. None of the baby pictures really came out all that well, and after only about 5 minutes of shooting, we had to go. She was hungry and needed to be fed, and seemed pretty sleepy and grumpy as well. The next time we went, however, was pure gold. We had some of the most gorgeous, well-put-together pictures of babies I had ever seen! I'm trying not to get my hopes up too high, but I know we have a very good chance of winning that contest.
