When taking those precious photos, make sure your camera setting is set at the highest resolution (at least 1800x1200 pixels). Please refer to your owners manual for information on setting your camera at the highest resolution.
If you are using a print photograph, I'd prefer you to send me the print and I will professionally scan it for you.
Keep your camera in arms distance at all times! Those candid shots usually end up being the best. Basic backgrounds work nicely as well as white or light colors. Try to prop babies up and get in real close for those up close shots. Start snapping away...the more photos you take the more likely you are to get one that will work!
Once you have that perfect photo, leave it alone. Please do not crop or colorize it. When you send me your photo, you can specify what areas you'd like to crop or colorize.
Have fun!
