Children's photography capture skills

1, lower body

Many people are used to shooting from their normal standing position, but in many cases, this can only take ordinary photos consistent with your ordinary perspective. Lowering the angle to the level of children will immediately bring you into their world, and the photos taken will be closer to their real life.

Step 2 pay attention to the background

Capturing children who often run around shows that you should pay special attention to background problems. A messy background will distract the audience. Large aperture shooting can blur the background as much as possible (but be careful about the depth of the scene). It is helpful to find a clean background and a wall. Sometimes some creative tailoring can be very different.

3. Shoot the scene, not just the face.

Good portraits of children usually have only faces, but sometimes it's good to shoot the whole scene-show the toys or pets next to them. Another option is to show a small detail that can represent a child's activities-a painted hand or a football hanging on the door.
