A Caring Daddy

Hi everyone. 

As a lot of you notice, I really enjoy photography. More than a passion, it’s a way of life, cause I always try to bring my camera everywhere I go. I also really enjoy mix this hobby with my diaper fetish. Only some rare tumblr blogs down here enjoy taking time to make good photos with real camera. 

But you don’t need to be a professionnel to make good pictures! Here are some tips I would like to share with you. 

The camera

There is no need a 2000 Dollars/euros camera! Of course it’s a plus, but if you have one, this topic is not for you ! So we all know than most people today use their smartphone to make photos. 

We’re in 2017, and it’s totally ok! Why? Because most of the camera now are very good. One advice anyway: use the rear camera, not the frontal (selfie) one. Because the quality is always better with this one. On a positive thing: no need to set the camera, cause everything is automatic. Best is always to use the timer, so you have time to be prepared. And try to fix your phone somewhere (you can use some small tripod or selfie stick).

If the conditions are correct, you can of course use the selfie camera, wich give a nice “close to the subject’ effect. But this represent almost 90% of ABDL photos ^^ You can also avoid the classic “photo in the mirror”, except if you play with the mirror reflection.

The Light 

The light is the most important thing in photography. THE MOST IMPORTANT. Why? Well, many reasons.

Light is important for the quality of the picture. Not enough light? Your camera will upgrade the quality of your camera sensor. Which means it can see more “clearly” in the dark. But, flip side of the coins, the picture will look terrible, with a lot of “noise” (you’ll seel all the pixel, the definition will be bad). 

It’s also important cause it what makes your photo “alive”. ABDL photo are rarely in black and white as you notice, cause it’s a fun and cute activity, when the dark and white is supposed to give a dramatic feedback. 

How to have a good light? Enjoy the daylight, first ! It’s the best and natural one. Stay close from a window, wait for a very sunny day. Bad weather outside? Then switch on the most light you have. You can also play with some specific light source, to give a personal ambient, but it’s harder, need practice, and imagination. 

Last tips: NEVER use the flash of your camera. Or only if you have a professional camera. Because Flash are very hard to use to give a natural aspect. They can be awesome if you know what you’re doing, but most of the time it just burns the face and give a wrong white balance (so colors).

The Composition

It’’s very important to have a bit of knowledge about composition. To go straight to the point: It’s never good to be the “center” of the photo. Well sometime, you’ll have to, but if you can, think about it: your photo has to be balanced. Portrait photo? Give space in front of the face of the subject, to suggest what he’s looking for. Give space to the room, the objects. It’s not only about you, it’s also about the environment. Show you blanket, your plushies, your toys… Many different possibility !

The subject

That’s the most important… because it’s about what you wanna show to the others. It can be anything: a toy, a pacifier, a diaper, you in diaper, a group of friend. Don’t just thing about you: logt of people also like the “subjectives” pictures with only a diaper picking out. No need to do a focus on you in diaper. 

Portrait? Why always showing diaper? ABDL can be relatives with the situation, like hug a plushies, suck your pacifier. Wanna really exposes yourself? Find a white back (wall) and just photography yourself with nothing else. 

Diaper fetish? Take all the details of your favorite diaper. Zoom on it. Make it the center of your composition. 

Photo group? Don’t wait for the photo: be natural, play with you friends, make jokes, laugh… The photo are more cool when they look spontaneous.

They are many different way to make ABDL photo, don’t hesitate to take inspiration on other blog. It’s not about copy someone, it’s first about learning. Soon you’ll get your own ideas and be the first to share it ! 

Looking good

Because being ABDL is mostly about being “cute”, you need to give the best of yourself. Attention: it’s not about YOU to look cute or beautiful: you are like ou are (I fell myself terribly ordinary). But it’s about the way you will look.

Take you best diaper, you best little clothes, your favorite and cuter plushies. Give the more chance to make this photo perfect. Also, being ABDL is about looking like a little. So if you’re ok with it: shave yourself, and remove hairs. It’s not about looking young, but.. Well,diaper refers to our childhood! And you used to be beardless at this time ^^

You can also make a contrast of your adult and aged side with you DL/ABDL side. A lot of people like it. As I said, it’s not an unconditional rule. But you’ll get more success if you pay attention to the details.

Post treatment 

Post treatment is very important because it today allows you to give a unique touch to your photo. But don’t add to much effect! Try many different filters: it must give you photo a unique ambiant, without misrepresent what you wanted to do at the beginning. 

Play with the focus, the blur, the colors, vignetting. A lot of apps can help you to enhance your photo: give more light, better exposition, remove thing you don’t wanna show, smooth your skin, change your eyes colors; keep only one color in the picture…

For personal reasons, I would recommend you:

http://ipiccy.com/ for online post treatment photo. It’s all free!

Moldiv a Android/Apple app that I use for smartphone (more information here: http://www.tapsmart.com/apps/review-moldiv-3/)

Watermarked 

This is very important: Internet is cool place but lot of people will take you work and post them without mention you. Always watermarked your photos with your name or the full adress of your blog. It can be a discreet mark, or very visible, as you want ;) The best is to put them in the middle of the photo: this way, even if the photo is cropped, the name will stay. Choose a very light contrast to make it almost invisible, then the person who steal it (…) won’t event think about remove it. 

Besides my face looking all weird, I really like what this photo focuses on 😏

✨ Not everyone has a caregiver to help them get into little space. Thankfully, it’s easy to blast off into little space all by yourself if you know how! Here are some things you can do to help! ✨

🚀 Putting on “little” clothes! It can be a comfy pair of pajamas, a shirt with a cartoon on it, overalls/shortalls, fuzzy socks, oversized clothing, or maybe even a onesie! By having a special article of clothing that you wear when little, it can help start the transition from being big to feeling little

🚀 Getting settled in! Whether you lay out a blanket to sit on or arrange pillows to lay on, it really helps to get comfortable

🚀 Watching children’s media! Tv shows, cartoons, movies, it doesn’t really matter, it just needs to be something that holds your interest. Watching something that you watched when you really were little can help, with the added benefit of some classic nostalgia, but sometimes it can really help to watch something you’ve never seen before! 

If you don’t know what to put on, here’s a list of cartoons that can be watched in full on Youtube!

🚀 Taking a nap! Getting all cozy, hugging a stuffie, and drifting off to sleep when it’s not bedtime itself feels really little. There’s also just something about waking up in the middle of the day, while being all snuggled up, that can make you wake up feeling little. I personally recommend 15 minute power naps, but sometimes napping for an hour or two is needed

🚀 Coloring! Simply sitting down, grabbing a crayon, and concentrating on finishing a drawing can help you drift from feeling big and stressed to feeling little and happy. There are plenty of cool coloring books that can be found in dollar stores, but you can also look up cool pages online, like detailed “adult” pages, comic book pages, and even some pages featuring old shows! 

I also, of course, make original coloring pages!

🚀 Filling in an age regression journal! For my own journal, I like finding questions and ask memes online about age regression and filling in the answers in it. By thinking of what you would do while little, you may sometimes even become little, so that’s helpful

I also make original little “space”-related prompts!

🚀 Eating nostalgic or yummy food on cute dinnerware! Whether it’s goldfish crackers, mac and cheese, or even edamame beans, as long as you like it, just eating food can help you get into little space because when you finish, you get to see the design! You can buy cute plates and utensils from retail stores of course, but you can also find nostalgic ones from thrift stores!

🚀 Playing kids games! If you still own the video games you’ve played when you were young, playing them again can really help you regress. If you don’t, you can find lots of great kids games at thrift stores for, usually, great prices

🚀 Going on kids websites! You can have plenty of fun on sites such as Nick Jr, Nick, Disney Junior, Disney, Cartoon Network, PBS Kids, Sesame Street, Build a Bear, Barbie, and many others. You can also use the Wayback Machine to play the old games and see the old content too

🚀 Listening to a little space playlist! Youtube and Spotify are filled with hours upon hours of kids music and albums, so creating a playlist filled with your favorites can be a fun activity as well as providing a way to regress later on. You can create playlists with nursery rhymes or songs from kids’ shows, playlists with cute sounding music and beats, and even bedtime playlists

Help spread the word! Diapers on adults is a very popular kink, it is completely harmless plus there extremely fun to wear or watch others wear.

Whether your a man or a women show your support to the diaper community also known as AB’s (Adult Babies), DL’s (Diaper Lovers) age players and a lot more by sharing this picture and leaving a favorite.

1. A little boy is someone who goes from “Daddy I’m tired” to “No I won’t sleep you can’t make me Daddy!” In about 33 seconds.

2. A little boy refuses to drink anything except for apple juice and milk.

3. A little boy plays with the household cats and gets disappointed when they walk away (like all cats do.)

4. A little boy won’t tell you what he wants for dinner but either agrees with what Daddy picks, or disagrees with everything until Dino nuggets and macaroni and cheese is suggested.

5. A little boy refuses to go anywhere without his stuffed mouse. (Named Mousey or Cheezer.)

6. A little boy will always complain there is never enough blankets. Ever.

7. A little boy will flop himself across your lap or sit on it randomly, expecting back rubs and cuddles.

8. A little boy will always pick a bubble bath over a shower.

9. But no bubble bath is complete without his rubber duckies.

10. He also might complain that you got shampoo in his eyes (even if you didn’t) just to get kisses.

11. He will randomly fall asleep everywhere, while coloring on the floor, eating dinner, on Daddy’s lap, everywhere.

12. He will want to wear Daddy’s socks, tshirts, pajama pants etc because they are cooler than his own.

13. He is too shy to ask for that new stuffie or toy in the store but you can see in his eyes he wants it so…he gets a new toy.

14. A little boy will refuse to go to doctors appointments without Daddy because they are too scary.

15. He will probably ask for ice cream afterwards and Daddy will give in because he was a good boy even though he hates the doctor.

16. A little boy will ask for trips to the zoo very frequently to see the giraffes. And then want to visit Africa to go see more giraffes.

17. He will probably then ask why there isn’t a giraffe Pokemon, and Daddy will tell him that there is and it’s called girafarig.

18. There will be so many days of watching nothing but Winnie the Pooh.

19. Sometimes it will be so sad to see him cry because of anxiety and depression and other things, that’s when he needs Daddy the most.

20. Daddy better never get tired of cuddles because they will be happening CONSTANTLY.

21. When there is a shortage of tacos in the house, it is a disaster and we must run to Taco Bell to make sure the shortage is just in our house, not the entire world.

22. Taking medicine at night is an hour long process sometimes. “I don’t want to, Daddy!”

26. “But, Daddyyyyyyy.”

27. Always always ALWAYS have a paci nearby. You never know when your little boy will want it.

28. Some nights he will want to sleep in pajamas, some nights he will refuse so he will be naked.

29. A little boy requires lots of body rubs, important spots are his back, butt, shoulders, arms, head/hair, and tummy.

30. You will have to keep the closet door open at all times to show there are no monsters in it. (Also might not be a good idea to watch Monsters. Inc)

31. Sometimes nightmares will wake him up and he needs to be cuddled and reassured he’s safe before he can sleep again.

32. You may have to watch Big Hero 6 several times in one day.

33. Getting your little boy to sit still can be impossible. (And Daddy is the one who has ADHD…)

34. Some days your little boy will be so sad he can’t even get out of bed. Make sure he knows he’s loved, make sure he eats, a bath or shower can wait, make sure he goes potty, and wrap him in lots of blankets and have a movie marathon. Also cuddles.

35. Never. Yell. At. Him. If he does something to upset you, take a few minutes to breathe and calm yourself down, and calmly explain why you got upset.

36. He will probably want to sit on your lap during dinnertime.

37. The best way to get rid of your little boy’s pouty lip is to kiss it and tickle him.

38. No matter how much he tries to convince you, chocolate ice cream is not an acceptable breakfast.

39. A little boy is quite the little rascal sometimes, be patient with him.

40. His hair will get poofy and tangled and everywhere, make sure to brush it at least twice a day. (P.S. He loves when you brush it so he might mess it up on purpose.)

41. “Baby it is 3 in the morning, go to sleep please.”

I’ve divided the following into 4 categories - Ideas (To be split into Fun Ideas and Punishment Ideas), Activities, Things To Say (To be split into Positive/Reassuring Things and Not So Positive/Teasing Things), and Advice & General ABDL Info/Knowledge.

Feel free to comment anything you feel needs to be added or is missing! Hope this helps somebody as much as it has my own Daddy! I will update this Compendium as I add more stuff and make new revisions! :) Credit to friends, followers, life experiences, myself & personal ABDL experiences, and most notably amazing sources like ABDL Dad’s very well written blogs and like-wise materials!

IDEAS: * Stand outside the bathroom whenever your little one goes potty if he’s not padded at that time, then ask him if he made it in time and check to make sure he did before praising or scolding him accordingly! * Act like your boy is too big for diapers until he gives you a -reason- to put him back in Diapers, Pull-Ups, or Training Pants! * Often ask your boy if he has to go potty, or if he “already went.” Whether he’s diapered or not (more ESPECIALLY if he’s not…) Even better if you can get away with it in public, and -always- ask before or when going anywhere. * If he has to go, ask him how bad and if its an emergency. * Ask him whether he wants to try and be a big boy or to just use his diaper or “have an accident”, give him the choice to try and be a big boy, then go along with it, whether he decides to succeed or to fail at it. * Before you let your ABDL boy rush out the door, have him stop and then check his clothes carefully. Fix the belt on his jeans. Adjust his diaper so that it shows just slightly above the waist and then pull his shirt down carefully over it. Give him a kiss on the cheek and tell him how wonderful he is and how adorable he looks. * If your little guy can’t wear diapers in the day, have him carry a Pull-Ups in his back pack. He might complain that someone might see it or find it. Assure him no one will ever notice. He may never even look at it, but knowing that it’s close at hand will give him a sense of security. * Instead of regular underwear, surprise your little with a pair of training pants! * Slip a pacifier into your boy’s pocket on the way out the door, imagine the blush when he reaches into his pocket and finds it! * If your boy wears a watch, take some diaper tape and attach it around the band. Call him later in the day and ask what time it is. If anyone knows that it’s no ordinary tape it will be him – you’ll hear the smile right through the phone line. * Most important of all, when your boy gets home give him a super long hug. Then say “let’s get you changed”. Don’t turn it into a big production… just “let’s get you changed” is enough – it says that Sunday wasn’t some special day all its own and that even though there’s a whole world of things to do he’s always his daddy’s little boy no matter where they are or what they’re doing! * Punish your boy for having a potty mouth, not just for having potty pants (if even…) * Pretend potty-train your boy even if you know he’s gonna use his diaper and have Onpurpsidents anyways. * Change your boy’s diaper when it leaks whether he wants it changed or not, and if he puts up too much of a fuss put him on time out! * Find ways to subtly make your boy feel little in public, it always makes their cheeks turn so red and adorable! * Set a Bedtime even when he wants to talk or play. * Try to get him to do something “little” (like ride a carousel for example.) Or have him do 2 random sporadic things a day that a cub would do impulsively and reward the behavior. * Punish your boy for sticking his tongue out. * Make your boy sit on Time Out in the corner and think about what he did in his wet or messy diaper or clothing. (with consent) * Bounce your boy on your knee * Give you boy discrete Diaper checks in public * Whisper loving things into your boy’s ears * * * * * * * *

ACTIVITIES: * Read a story to your little! * Feed you boy a bottle of milk (Preferably warm, maybe sweetened too!) * Take him to a Park to play * Teach him how to do something new * Let him help with something (Cooking, Laundry, etc) * Snuggling! * Take your boy to the mall * Watch Childhood Movies and Cartoons with him. * Go see a Movie with him. * Play games with him. * Put a puzzle together with each other (Not one with too many pieces though, that’s too hard and the smaller piece may be choking hazards! ;P) * Color pictures together * Catch bugs together * Go Fishing together * Pretend Potty Training (Play along and encourage them, whether they decide to succeed or fail.) * Give your boy a bubble bath * Build a blanket fort together * Go Hiking in the woods * Take a camping trip and let your boy enjoy nature as a little, free of worries, and pants! * * * * * * * * * * *

THINGS TO SAY: * Call your boy names he likes that make him feel little, blush, or embarrass him. * Remind him how little he is! * Often remind him how little you -think- he is * Tell him how much he means to you! * Remind your little what he needs your help doing! * Randomly ask your boy if he has to go potty. * Ask your boy if he can hold it or if its an emergency * Randomly ask your boy if he had an accident, even if you know he didn’t. * “Let’s get you changed.” * “Be a big boy and hold it, or not, daddy wont tell anybody and will get you cleaned up/changed.” * “I swear to god if you poop your pants…” * “Did you poop your pants?” * “Come here, are you wet again already?” * “You purposely didn’t make it didn’t you?” * “Its okay, accidents happen! Let’s go get you cleaned up/Changed.” * “You’re not going to bed without a Diaper on!” * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
