Toddler Photography made easy

Photographing little children can be quite difficult as any parent will have experienced, they don't neccessarily want to smile when you ask them or sit still. The best way of getting nice pictures of little children is to let them be little children... and don't stress. I have included some pictures above to showcase how you can make the most of any situation. Let them explore, run around and play, the only thing you need to do is be quick with the trigger. In all these pictures I just waited for the right moment to take the picture, while the little one was playing and not concentrating on the camera. I love each and everyone of them, because I know what the little one was doing, these type of pictures capture their character, you will always remember that they used to be little explores and interested in everything that surrounded them and that they could play anywhere and didn't need many toys, a New York School Bus and the Central Park are enough. Don't get me wrong, I do love the pictures, where they look straight into the camera as well, but these ones have captured these candid little moments....
