I had fun the other week, after a shopping trip in Cambridge with Izzy, going out and doing a mini session. Izzy and I had a lot of fun and I have already ordered a framed print from this session!
Our kids grow up so quick these days. We are quick to photograph and capture the under 5 moments, then school begins and we buy the school photo every year, and before our very eyes our kids are growing up and smiling for the camera is no fun anymore. Our kids become gawky for a bit whilst they grow into their features again!
To get the best from your kids get them to pose/work with something that interests them. For boys this could be skateboarding, music; for girls fashion is a good place to start! Use iPods and mobile phones as props seems to always get a thumbs up. Most tweens these days are never seen without them!
Most kids have a favorite hat or accessory they love to wear, start the shoot with that favorite hat so they feel comfortable, and then ask them to remove later, you wont have such a problem once they are into the shoot!
I know I will treasure these photo's of Izzy, they sum up Izzy so well at the moment. She is proud of her braces and not embarrassed, she loves to pose but deep down is still my 11 year old girl! I think I have captured all sides of her in this session. What do you think?
Thanks for stopping by
