Holiday Gift - Photographing Children

Word has it that my book, Photographing Children, has been a great gift for new and expectant parents. It is also a wonderful accompaniment to the gift of a camera!

As time has passed since the book came out last year, and our Facebook Group on Photographing Children has reached almost 800 members, I've been thinking about how time will effect the popularity of the book. I have noticed that throughout all the fads and popular photography trends for photographing children, you've got to know the basics: seeing the light, learning to make beautiful compositions, and evoke striking expressions. Once you have the basics down (and I'm not necessarily talking about the technical elements,) you can freely start to develop your own style: photojournalistic, mystical, retro, modern, stark, romantic, classic - whatever suits your tastes and temperament!

I think you will find the book extremely friendly and helpful from all points of view, whether a beginner, intermediate or pro.

Feel free to join the Facebook Group, Photographing Children, to join in on the discussion, and perhaps join our next contest.

Happy Holidays!
