Tracy Raver photography – Above, is one of Tracy Raver photos that I truly love. The baby looks-like my baby Misha. I really love photos of babies napping with a peaceful contentment or smiling.

Nebraska photographer Tracy Raver Photos, consist of sleeping newborns are truly beautiful. Tracy Raver appeared on the TODAY show this morning to talk about her work, specializing in photographing newborn babies. Raver tells the Today show that she is able to catch the babies mid-slumber by keeping her studio warm and cozy.

Tracy says the babies are “naturally very sleepy,” making them pretty easy to work with as subjects. “What we try to work towards is natural curly positions like they would be in the womb,” she said. “They will bend very easily, and when they’re sound asleep you can do just about anything to them.”

Still, she says the environment in the studio is very important for the babies’ comfort. “The babies have to be very very warm, so we crank it up to about 85 degrees,” she said. “And we ask the moms that they have their bellies nice and full before they leave so that the drive to the studio gets them nice and sleepy in the car.”

And she uses props like hats and slings, though she says she likes to do something different with each kid and doesn’t really plan it ahead of time. “We kind of just read the baby,” she said. “Little girls tend to be a little bit feistier, so we have to work a little bit harder with them.”

Tracy Raver photography is really amazing. She has the ability to illustrate the innocence, gentleness, and calmness of newborns in lovable portraits. It is amazing how she can get babies, to pose in ways that look entirely adorable.
