What people are saying about the Fundamentals of Newborn Photography…

I purchased both the Fundamentals of Newborn Photography e-book and the Newborn Posing Guide, and I have to say it has helped me so, so much!  I have done two newborn sessions since reading the guide and feel like the difference in sessions from before reading the guide to now is night and day!  I really am glad I purchased them together because they really do go hand in hand.  My favorite thing about the e-book is that it gives you the (pretty much) exact instructions on what you do at a session, and by just tweaking a few of the things I had been doing, my sessions are now going a lot more smoothly.

The Fundamentals of Newborn Photography e-book answered some very specific questions I had about newborn photography. The keeping baby asleep page and the bean bag posing page were both very helpful pages.

~Kristen from New York

Cori’s fundamentals of newborn photography is truly a must have for anyone considering photographing newborns! It is full of so much great information, from lighting and best photographic environment to her special techniques on how to achieve beautiful images and all the while remembering to keep that itty bitty baby safe. The e book is also full of great pictures to go along with the explanations. I encourage anyone photographing newborns to take advantage of this awesome learning tool.

~Heather from Vacaville, California

I specialize in newborn photography and I love it. Newborns are my thing. I have watched other photographers, learned from their workshops, tried things, tried again, read things, read again, and found what works in newborn photography.This e-book has 15 full size pages (8.5×11) stuffed full of information and example images. This is basically all my tips, tricks, and more in regards to newborn photography. This e-book is an opportunity to learn what I have learned and to skip ahead (after much trial and error) to what is actually working for me. This e-book covers the subject areas of preparing the environment for baby, lighting, my camera equipment, keeping baby asleep, white balance, communicating with parents, safety, props, and more. It is a digital PDF file that you can download and either print or read on your ipad or kindle. If you are serious about newborn photography, the combination of this e-book and my Newborn Posing Guide should help you skip ahead considerably.

What you should know before buying this newborn e-book:

First and foremost, be sure you know how to use your camera and all of it’s manual functions. This newborn e-book and all of the tips that are included in it will be best put to use by a photographer who first knows their camera, second is willing to try and try again, and third knows the many different things involved in posing a newborn baby. Refer to my blog if you need to learn your manual camera functions. Master your camera then come back and learn how to master your Newborn Photography. If you have trouble posing your newborns during your photo shoots then you may find the instructions and tips in my Newborn Posing Guide helpful.

What people are saying about the Newborn Posing Guide…

I took the Newborn Posing Guide on a newborn shoot. Having the guide in my camera bag was like having someone hold my hand. The photos from this shoot were elevated to another level because I could relax and use some proven tips and techniques. Thanks for being a great asset to my school of knowledge!

~Rebekah from Minnesota

I purchased both the Fundamentals of Newborn Photography E-book and the Newborn posing guide, and I have to say it has helped me so, so much!  I have done two newborn sessions since reading the guide and feel like the difference in sessions from before reading the guide to now is night and day!  I really am glad I purchased them together because they really do go hand in hand.  I like to look at the posing guide before I go in to do a session.  The small details that you have outlined are really where I see the biggest difference in the photos.  Things like, ‘make sure both hands are showing’ and ‘try to get both feet to show’ makes the position look a lot more natural and pleasing in the photograph.  It needs to be the right circumstance to do a few of the poses, but the variety given in the guide is great because I can usually find something to do given the position the baby has settled into.

~Whitney from California

I love this newborn posing guide. It has really helped me to understand just how to pose a sweet newborn. Thank you! By the way, Your customer service is wonderful! I ordered the wrong product and y’all fixed it quickly. I really appreciate that. Keep up the amazing work!

Cori’s posing guide is a great tool for photographers. I find it very helpful to have during my shoots. A must for those just starting newborn photography for sure!

~Sara from Northern California

Cori is an amazing photographer with an awesome ability to photograph newborns in their purest form!  Cori’s latest project, the newborn posing guide, is an awesome asset for any photographer. As a budding photographer, I have admired Cori’s newborn photos and wondered “how does she do that?” Her posing guide provides step by step instructions to get the babies in your photo shoots to look just as sweet!

~Kristen from New York

The Newborn Posing Guide has given me great ideas for my business. The book is beautifully illustrated and very easy to follow. I would recommend this book to professionals as wells as parents wanting to take great pictures of their little ones. Thank you Cori for educating the rest of us that have a love and passion for baby photography.

~Beth from North Carolina

This guide has over 30 different poses of babies in sleepy, squishy positions. It will show you by example how to mold a newborn’s fresh little body into beautiful poses. These are my favorite ways to pose newborns, and my step-by-step instructions will show you how to achieve each look. This Newborn Posing Guide is focused on how to pose your newborn babies but there is much more detail about all the ins and outs of my newborn photography in my e-book, The Fundamentals of Newborn Photography. If you are serious about newborn photography, the two products together should help you skip ahead considerably.

Here are some images from some of my recent newborn photo shoots:
