If you're a new mom struggling to get those perfect baby photos, this one’s for you.
One of my many favorites from my baby’s AI photos
I Tried and Failed to DIY my Newborn Photos
When my baby was born, I was determined to take beautiful newborn photos myself. I set up a cozy corner in the living room, bought some adorable props, prepared my baby girl’s little headbands and outfits, and used a bedsheet as a backdrop. I thought it would be a fun project, but here’s what went wrong:
Uncooperative Baby: My little one seemed to sense when I was trying to get a good shot and would start fussing or squirming. Getting her to stay still was nearly impossible and so many of the better photos came out blurry.
Timing Issues: Between feedings, diaper changes, and naps, finding the right time for a photoshoot was a nightmare. My baby was either too sleepy or too cranky. Or, I was too sleepy or too cranky.
Lighting Challenges: Despite my best efforts, I couldn’t get the lighting right. My photos were either too dark or too bright, and I didn’t have the skills to fix them. We don’t have natural light and I wasn’t about to spend on an expensive set of photo studio lights.
So I Tried and Failed to Learn Photoshop
Determined to make my photos look professional, I decided to learn Photoshop. I watched countless YouTube tutorials and spent hours trying to edit my baby’s photos. Here’s what made it so hard:
Complex Software: Photoshop is incredibly complex. As a tired new mom, trying to learn all the tools and techniques was overwhelming.
Time-Consuming: Editing even a single photo took forever. Between taking care of my baby and trying to get some rest, I barely had any time to improve my skills.
Disappointing Results: Despite my efforts, the photos still didn’t look the way I wanted. They lacked the professional touch, and I was left feeling frustrated and defeated.
I Almost Gave Up, Then I Tried Honeycomb
Just when I was about to give up, a friend suggested trying Honeycomb’s AI newborn photography service. Skeptical but desperate, I decided to give it a shot. The process was simple: I uploaded a few photos of my baby’s face, and the AI did the rest.
The results were beyond my wildest dreams. The AI transformed my everyday snapshots into professional-quality photos. Here’s why I loved it:
Effortless Perfection: The AI took care of all the enhancements, turning my photos into beautiful images without any effort on my part.
Time-Saving: The photos were ready quickly, allowing me to focus on caring for my baby instead of spending hours editing.
User-Friendly: The platform was incredibly easy to use, even for a sleep-deprived new mama.
Quality and Style: Every photo looked stunningly stylish, with props and backdrops that were so much better than what I was able to buy and DIY. It also gave me a variety of styles to choose from, which I wouldn’t have been able to achieve myself.
Now, I have beautiful newborn photos that I’m proud to share with my family and friends. I’ve been recommending Honeycomb’s AI photography service to all my new mom friends, and they’ve been just as thrilled with the results.
