How to shoot good children's photographs, and what details should we pay attention to?

Love and patience are the basis of taking good photos for children. Children's emotions and behaviors are passive, which makes their attention difficult to last. It is hard for us to imagine that children before the age of three will "pose". Children's feelings are keen and direct. If you want to shoot good children's photography, you must really like children and communicate with them with your heart. Children's expressions are ever-changing, their gestures are always naive, and they are natural performers. Most of the photos of family children should be captured.

Grasp taboos and taboos

One thing we must pay attention to is the use of flash. From a medical point of view, the baby's visual nervous system is not fully developed from birth to three years old, and strong light will have a negative impact on the development of the eye immune system. Therefore, when shooting, try to avoid using flash, and it is best to shoot with natural light. Some stupid automatic cameras will automatically activate the flash when the light is poor, so be sure to pay attention. Older children can shoot with a flash when necessary, but it is also best to fill the light with reflection or add a soft light in front of the flash.

Variable angle and form

Children's photos record their growing experiences and should be multidimensional. The "angle" here has two meanings. One is the shooting angle. There must be at least three angles when shooting, such as shooting with children at eye level, standing higher, squatting or even lying down, and shooting as many changes as possible at vertical angle. You also need to change the shooting distance and the focal length of the lens. In addition to the whole body or big bust, there should be close-ups and prospects. In addition to using a medium telephoto lens, you can also use a wide-angle lens. It's like a movie with more scene changes and more "life".

Furthermore, children should also express themselves from a variety of angles. Most parents always smile when taking pictures of their children, which is monotonous and stiff. Children have rich expressions. To record his growth, we must record his joys and sorrows. This is life. Laughing, crying, angry, silent, amazed and grotesque. Most smiling photos are ordinary, and a funny photo may remind the baby of a "story" when he grows up.
