Photographing Thije and Yinthe

Yesterday my sister came by for pictures of her two children, Thije and Yinthe. I can tell you without a doubt that photographing children will never become my hobby. I found out that you really need to have good lighting all over otherwise you are going to have a lot of shadows on the wrong places. Also children move to much, even with the shutter speed of 1/125s (the maximum sync speed of my studioflashes) the pictures are still not as sharp as they are supposed to be. I also learned that when you ask a child to smile you get the most creepy look ever… Then when you think you are finally ready to take pictures of one of them the other one attacks you from behind

    Wat een ontzettend leuke foto’s! Maar ja… ik ben enigszins bevooroordeeld!
    Drie jaar en dan al zo’n modelletje. Mooi belicht en weer haarscherp.

    Petje af,
