Digital Child Photography is lots of Fun, but hold your Nerve!

Digital child photography can be a lot of fun, but it can also be quite hard work, especially if your subject is always on the move.

But if you are relaxed, there is more of a chance that the baby will relax as well.

Apart from regular portraits, some images that work particularly well include close-ups of hands or feet. Try zooming into mom and baby's hands together.
