When taking photographs of babies or small kids, it is natural, as an adult, to point your digital camera's lens downward toward the child. However, this can often result in photos that look like the child is overwhelmed by the largeness of their surroundings. Consider kneeling or sitting when taking a photograph, shooting with your digital camera lens pointed directly at the child as to shoot from their eye level. This can better show how the world looks to them, possibly resulting in more pleasing photographs.
