Tip of the Week

Get on their level. nbsp;Many, Many, Many (dare I say too many) pictures you see of children are shot... down!. nbsp;While it is certainly a nice effect sometimes, it is not the most flattering angle for a picture, and can cast shadows. nbsp;When taking pictures of small children, try getting down to their level and shooting straight... or even if possible or necessary, bring them UP to your level, on a chair, a counter, table, etc. nbsp;
