Ugh. The weird stuff that parents do….
Did I miss the memo…? I think I did.
You know the one? The memo that said that this style of photography was ‘all the rage’, ‘popular’ and just plain ‘awesome!’ I see this kind of baby torture everywhere, and can’t help but cringe and wonder what other weird things these parents are into?
At first glance I ask myself why they put a tea cosy on her head… Is she really cold? Or is this some fashion trend that I have not yet caught onto?
Was the baby below sedated for it to get in this position and stay there?! There is something about this baby’s feet chilling out around it’s shoulders that makes me concerned. Plus how on earth is she holding herself up on her hands, were they super glued to her face? Last but by no means least, the large pompoms, greater than the size of her head growing out the sides…. Hrmm, maybe they should have it checked out by a specialist.
I hate these type of photos AND the stupid things that are stuck on the head of gorgeous newborn babies. The sad thing is that mother’s who see this pose will try and do it EXCEPT it is photoshopped using three different photos.
Nothing like capturing a natural moment!
I will NEVER buy anything like this for MY granddaughter!
Here is one of zillions of tutorials to achieve this type of photo: http://www.iheartfaces.com/2010/11/newborn-photography-head-in-hands-pose/
PLEASE DO NOT TRY TO POSE YOUR BABY thinking your baby will stay in this pose – THEY WILL NOT!
