Photographing Children
Photographing children is quite difficult but enormously rewarding. I have photographed countless children and it is hard work, to being allowed into their world and gaining their trust. Once you do that and you get down to their level, then their world is yours. Yes of course, to photograph a child, you have to be a child yourself first and remember, there is a child in everyone's heart. Most difficult task I face while photographing children is that you just can't ask them to pose for you. That's why you must have heck lot of patience. If you don't, then forget about becoming a Child photographer. Interesting part of child photography is to wait for the wonderful expression on their sweet little faces and being ready to click the right frame at the right time. It's tremendous feeling when you are able to freeze their beautiful smile and innocent acts.
