Newborn Safety!
We all love Photos of these little miracles, and we all love FACEBOOK and PINTREST, and let’s face it- social media in general… so I thought it was only appropriate to dedicate a blog post specifically to educate new parents as well as new photographers on the safety of newborn photography.
