Kid's photography
It is very trending nowadays. It is very exciting too!
It can be done in two locations, indoors and outdoors.
1 - Indoor photoshoots should be done in a closed room for more close-up angles.
2 - Outdoor photoshoots can be done in open spaces like gardens, play areas, or scenic places.
Challenges
The main challenge we face is children's mood swings while capturing the best moments.
We cannot give any instructions to the child as they are in their own world.
The kid's photo shoot is a consuming process that tests your patience.
You have to be experienced enough to capture the best photos. The time frame is very short because babies are very restless by nature.
Best Practices
You have to be on your toes to do the best kid's photoshoot.
You have to do a detailed study of the place, conditions, and times before you take the photographs.
Make sure the baby is mentally and physically prepared for the photo shoot.
Please do not go too close to the child to click the picture, as it might disturb the child.
Always ask parents to be around the child.
Bring your favorite toys, balloons, and other items for a good session.
