Personalized Baby Blanket in Paris Park

I have been feeling really jazzed up to get some of my new blankets listed! This newest one is really cute (I think!) and I fell in love with the vintage-inspired print with little kids playing in the park with balloons, dogs, birds, and cats. This design is a fun departure from the usual pale pink and blue blankets and I am happy to have these great primary colors in the mix.

I'm also exploring the different ways to photograph the blankets. It is not easy to capture the personalization and the fabric print in one photo since they are on opposite sides! I'm also trying to include little kids and babies in the shot since I love seeing the little faces and the kids provide some scale so viewers can get a sense of how big the blankets are. Getting my little models to work with me is another huge challenge! I am pretty much having to bribe my almost-5 year old to pose for me (she's a diva!). My youngest is more amenable to being in pictures but she is much less predictable. The continuous shooting option on my new camera makes it much easier to get some decent shots of her, yet it is still not easy. One of my new goals is to overhaul my listing pictures and get more of our little friends in the pictures so I have a variety of little faces looking out of the pictures. Wish me luck!
