It has been awhile since I photographed children outside of a wedding situation and I have to say I had forgotten how much fun it can be. When I first started my career as a photographer over 10 years ago I actually photographed children all the time. It is true that photographing children can sometimes be challenging, but over the years I’ve found just talking to kids can put them at ease. In fact not only will I get the perfect shot by doing this, but the children confide in me and tell me little things such as…..”I’m almost smarter than Dad because I’m a better speller.” Well, at least this is what I was told this time around.
