Photographing Children

We know that photographing your own children is undoubtably one of the hardest things to do, but it need not be that way!

On location at the fabulous Bishopstrow House, the day will start with an informal introduction with refreshments. We will then have a review of camera controls, functions and equipment looking at settings best suited for portraits. The second half of the morning will be centred around indoor portraiture with and without flash in the studio looking at composition and posing, prior to breaking for lunch. The afternoon session will will commence with an outdoor shoot at a location local to the studio. We will focus on location, composition, lighting, camera settings and posing. On returning to the studio we will review photographs taken and have a period on editing using photoshop.
