The light on this one is SO BEAUTIFUL!!

Ger..

Thank you. As you know most of my work is with busy little bodies. This was my first time working with a still subject. I used the reflector my husband got me for Christmas. It's a dual tone (gold/silver) on one side and white on the other. I used the dual tone and it is quite captivating isn't it? Thanks again for you comments Ger.

How did you find the slower pace?

I hate all that direction...

 

I did my first organised shoot of a child who didn't know me on Sunday. She was sooo shy, we only did 30 minutes but she was starting to relax by the end of it.

I just sat on the ground, got soaked and let her do what ever, which is the way I like to work. Her parents thought I got nothing but I got about 18 shots I was happy with, they will be surpised.

Have to say I really enjoyed working that way.

On the other side of the coin a friend of mine was in the exat same situation and hated it.."the little *** wouldn't stay still" was his reply when I asked him the next day. He never wants to do it again.

Well I think for me social children photography is for sure one area I want to concentrate on.

 

Ger..

This natural beauty is a 12-year-old from my church. She spends a lot of time with my family because her mom works a lot (single mommy). She's like a big sister to my kids now. Anyway, I always knew the camera would love her, so I offered to do a free shoot so I could play around with lighting and give her mom some memorable pics! But I certainly do enjoy taking candid pics of the little **** runnin' around all over the place. It's such a reflection of personality and that's where I want my market to be. Have you posted any pics from your organized shoot with the child? Can't wait to see them!!

Yea, They are the ones with the shy little blond girl in the dress.

They are great images for your portfolio for sure Sherry..
