This weekend I began my studio photo sessions. Normally my shoots are in my clients home, yard or outside location. At times this is certainly challenging because it is always a search for the right light. I had the great idea of setting up a backdrop, bringing in lights and creating the perfect set-up....so I thought. Some shots were great, exactly as I wanted them to be. Some of the others...not so much. Trying to balance the power of the lights and shutter speed with the movement of the kids was quite a chore. Speaking of kids...something about studio lights just seemed to make their smile disappear.
This has definitely been a humbling experience. At the end of today I was really beating myself up. I want to give people pictures that they love. I think the good news for me is that I think I officially confirmed and or defined my style. I shoot lifestyle portraits. I enjoy capturing those candid and innocent moments that only come from chasing a child around their yard versus popping them in front of a light and expecting a great smile. The bad news is I wasted some great hair and time.
All that being said I decided to post some of the funnier pictures from this weekend...not necessarily the frameable ones. Enjoy!
