Photographing Children

 

 

 

Can be fun, but it can also be very difficult. Try these tips to make it all worthwhile.

96 .Get down to the child's level. This may mean kneeling down.

97. Ensure lighting is also set at a lower level than normal.

98. Get ready to use more film than normal. Photographing a child doesn't always go to plan and its not always quick to get the best photograph.

99. A professional will often get a child to smile by introducing a cuddly toy that squeaks before the picture is taken. Try this for yourself. It can also help with a short attention span.

100. Work quickly. Children have trouble remaining still for long.
