Photographing a clubfoot infant requires a unique approach that combines technical skill with a compassionate perspective. Our team of experienced photographers understands the importance of creating a safe and comfortable environment for both the child and their family.

We recognize that clubfoot is a condition that is unique and worthy of being documented as a family’s wishes. We adore these photos that highlighted his newness before they traveled to have the treatment begin. Kaanav was a supermodel for his session and the family was amazing on their own, cherishing every bit of the experience.

What is clubfoot?

Born with clubfoot is a condition where an infant's foot is twisted or turned inward. It is a congenital deformity that affects around one in 1,000 births. Although it may seem daunting, proper treatment and care can help children with clubfoot lead normal lives. With early intervention, such as stretching exercises, casting, and sometimes surgery, the foot can gradually be corrected over time. Physical therapy and special footwear may also be required to support the foot's development.

It is important to remember that being born with clubfoot does not define a person, and with the right support system, individuals can still pursue their dreams and live fulfilled lives. Note: SunnyMelon Photography does not currently offer medical services. Parents and caregivers of clubfoot infants should consult with their healthcare providers for any necessary treatment or intervention.
