Exclusive QnA with
Priyanka Balgotra
1. How did you develop a passion for maternity and newborn photography, and what drew you specifically to capturing these precious moments in a woman’s life?
My passion for maternity and newborn photography developed from a deep appreciation for the beauty and significance of these fleeting moments in a woman’s life. The incredible journey of pregnancy and the arrival of a newborn are profound and transformative experiences. Being able to capture and preserve these precious moments through photography allows me to contribute to the storytelling of a family’s journey, creating lasting memories that can be cherished for generations.
2. What are some key factors you consider when planning and executing a maternity or newborn photoshoot to ensure the comfort and safety of both the mother and baby?
When planning and executing a maternity or newborn photoshoot, the comfort and safety of both the mother and baby are my utmost priorities. Here are some key factors I consider:
a. Communication: I maintain open and clear communication with the expectant mother or parents prior to the shoot to understand their vision, preferences, and any specific concerns they may have.
b. Timing: For maternity shoots, I schedule the session during the mother’s second trimester when she’s likely to feel more comfortable and have a visible baby bump. For newborn shoots, I aim to capture those precious early days within the first two weeks when babies are generally sleepier and more easily posed.
c. Safety precautions: I am well-versed in newborn safety protocols and ensure that the environment is clean, sanitized, and free from any hazards. I work patiently and gently, prioritizing the comfort and safety of the baby at all times. Maternity shoots are planned with consideration for the mother’s physical comfort, taking breaks as needed and providing support if required.
d. Patience and flexibility: Babies, especially newborns, have their own schedules and moods. I approach each session with patience and flexibility, allowing ample time for feeding, soothing, and cuddling as necessary.
3. Can you share any heartwarming or memorable experiences you’ve had while photographing expecting mothers or newborns that truly touched your heart?
I have been fortunate to witness countless heartwarming and memorable experiences while photographing expectant mothers and newborns. One particular experience stands out vividly in my mind: during a newborn session, the baby’s older sibling, a toddler, was initially a bit apprehensive and uncertain. However, as the session progressed, I observed a beautiful transformation. The toddler’s curiosity and fascination grew, and they started interacting and bonding with their new sibling in front of the camera. It was a magical moment that captured the beginnings of a lifelong bond. Witnessing such authentic connections and being able to preserve them through photographs is incredibly touching and fulfilling.
Another memorable experience was during a maternity shoot, where the expectant mother shared her personal journey of overcoming infertility challenges and her deep gratitude for finally expecting a child.
4. What techniques or approaches do you use to create a relaxed and natural environment during your photoshoots, especially when working with newborns who may be fussy or uncooperative?
Creating a relaxed and natural environment during newborn photoshoots is essential for capturing genuine moments and ensuring the baby’s comfort. Here are some techniques and approaches I use:
a. Warmth and comfort: I ensure the shooting area is comfortably warm to mimic the cozy environment of the womb. This helps keep the baby calm and sleepy.
b. Gentle posing: I use gentle posing techniques that prioritize the baby’s safety and well-being. I pay attention to their cues, allowing breaks for feeding, diaper changes, and cuddling whenever necessary.
c. Soft lighting: I prefer to use natural light or soft studio lighting setups to create a gentle and flattering atmosphere.
d. White noise and soothing techniques: To create a calming environment, I often utilize white noise machines or soft music to mimic familiar sounds that babies are accustomed to.
5. In your opinion, how does maternity and newborn photography empower women and celebrate the beauty of motherhood? Have you witnessed any transformative effects on your clients through this process?
Maternity and newborn photography hold immense power in empowering women and celebrating the beauty of motherhood. Through this art form, women have the opportunity to embrace and showcase their changing bodies, capturing their strength, grace, and the incredible journey of pregnancy. It allows them to feel seen, appreciated, and confident in their unique beauty.
Moreover, maternity and newborn photography also helps to celebrate the bond between parents and their babies. It immortalizes the deep love, tenderness, and joy that accompanies the arrival of a new life. By documenting these intimate moments, photography provides a tangible reminder of the profound role of motherhood
I have witnessed numerous transformative effects on my clients through this process. The act of being photographed during pregnancy or with a newborn often boosts self-confidence and fosters a deep sense of connection and appreciation for their bodies. It helps them embrace their roles as parents, strengthen family bonds, and create lasting memories that they can treasure for a lifetime.
