  1. How to Capture Children's Portraits

  2. You may have heard many parents complaining that their kids always seem to grow up too fast. Children can’t be stopped from growing and they won’t be cutest little things forever. With help of photography, ensure that you capture those wonderful moments of your kid’s childhood. But, sometimes you might not find it easy to capture perfect pictures of your impatient and naughty kids. Following are a few tips that can help you save those memories in the best way possible by taking children's portraits.

  3. First, while preparing for a child’s photography session ensure that he or she is comfortable with the surroundings. This might not be a concern, if you are child’s parent. However, if the parents have hired you as a professional photographer then you should consider about getting to know the child before the photography session starts.

  4. Get comfortable with not only the child, but also with the parents. Sit with the whole family and become familiar with their expectations from the session’s results. Tell the parents a few things about photography and play with the kids. All these factors might play a crucial role to make everyone calm and comfortable while you take up the lens to start the picture session.

  5. There are chances that kids involved in the photography session might get curious about your camera equipment. You can allow them to take a look at it. Sometimes, young children might find the camera lens a bit frightening and by letting them inspect the camera you can remove fear from their hearts.

  6. You can keep or carry a toy or similar prop for the photography sessions with kids as these look cute and can add fun to the portrait. Not only that, toys and props can keep young kids serene and entertained while the photography session is going on.

  7. Parents can also keep this point in their minds, like if you kids like cars or dolls, allow them to carry their favourite car or doll in the pictures. This helps in maintain focus of the child and provides a personality to the portrait. Who knows, that you might become successful in capturing a beautiful shot of the child playing and enjoying with the toys.

  8. Lastly, if you want to opt for a candid photography session of kids then ensure that you have the right lenses and extra film space available on your camera. Have a quick and effective lens, if you don't wish the pictures to be blurry. • If you’re looking for child portraiture photographer Sydney, Sam Crawford Photography can help you in capturing the wonderful moments of your kids lives.
