There is more then one way to capture the image of a shy child. Our way – make him work for us first. He sees that its SO easy to be in front of the camera that he jumps right in there after he takes the image of someone else.

Nicole and I will try almost anything to get a smile from children. Most of the time these children are in the front of a camera (and the stranger taking their picture) for the first time. Having a screaming child is something that we have to contend with every time we walk into a preschool. Does this stop us? Or get us upset? NO WAY. This is just a test of what we came up with to “trick” the little one into giving us a nice smile, that is sure to please his/her parents.

This video is just an example of what we do to capture a unique image of a child. As you can see the camera is triggered by a little boy that would not get his picture taken initially. After taking the picture of a fellow student, he could not wait to get his picture taken.
