I am working on learning to take portraits this week for a photo class I am taking. This weeks assignment is to take three types of portraits: Head, Partial Body, and Full Body.
One of the BIGGEST challenges I have been having is getting a toddler to look anywhere near the camera. Somehow today I managed to get his to look at me for a few seconds and got two OK shots!!! Happy Dance. I also tried placing him in covered shade with him looking towards some sky/light. He wouldn’t look exactly where I had hoped but I did manage to get some catch lights in his eyes! I also would have liked a bit more light on his face but when working with a toddler I will be happy with just an image in focus!
So now onto what really matters– pictures of my super cute little man…
