Baby pic ideas?

I'm having baby pictures taken soon and after examining my fried brain, I've discovered...nothing. Well, no original thoughts anyway, so I looked up that blog, http://milasdaydreams.blogspot.com/ for ideas, and she took down her pics because people were violating her copy rights. She said it was okay for people to post a couple with a link to her blog, so here are a couple I found.

I just need some inspiration, I thought of maybe I could dress him like a cowboy and put all of our stuffed horses around him, but I'm just not sure that I'll want lots of shots like that, one or two yes, but not more.



Q: Any ideas for creative baby pics?

I don't really have a lot of ideas. I love it when they are holding a stuffed animal, or ball or anything, then there are shots each month or so as they grow and the object says the same. So fun to see how big they get.

I also like boys in overalls with no shirt :-)

I'm excited to see what you come up with.

Ideas...here are a bunch that could be intermixed in a number of ways...I hope you can visualize what I am seeing...or that they give you a better idea!

Perhaps you could dress him up like a cowboy and then varry the background for different shots...stuffed horses... plants...a mini fence...in a wheelbarrow or other boy like toy/bucket/box/shovel...or inside a larger cowboy hat...or on top of a bale of hay..in a tractor tire.. in a feeding trough (Hope that doesn't sound weird...) ...with multiple colored scarfs or coyboyesque hankerchiefs making only a pattern and not a picture... or using a green/yellow/tan blanket or scarfs to make a field... or go with a more huckleberry fin look...white oneies w/ or w/o overalls...him placed in a straw hat... or a paint bucket...or next to colored scarfs that look like a river...or like he is climbing a tree... or with flowers all around him...like he got into the graden... (so not all like they are planted... or just go with the basic white diaper/onsie...or boots..or whatever prop cloths you have and mix up the backgound scenes... or pick a different little boy poem/story/theme...and get prop ideas from that... think of him in or on blankets or objects that convey that scene...or just a blanket with an awesome pattern...

anywho...that was a little long...but I hope that helps spark some new ideas or angles. :)
