I thought this week would be the perfect week to share this blog post since I know we all struggle to get our kids to sit still for a photo. I have used these tips before and they have really helped. In fact, last week when a few of us went out to practice backlighting, my friend told me how impossible it was to photograph her daughter, age 3. Remembering this article, I told her I would bring a few props. She ended up doing an amazing job that night letting us take tons of pictures of her. This would also work with animals :) Buy your puppy a new chew toy and watch him sit still!!
Check out the blog post – How to Work with Children..Not Against Them from I Heart Faces to read some more of the tips.
Come back on Friday to share one of your photos with us!! Can’t wait to see your photos!

I loved the shooting from a distance suggestion, I hadn’t really thought about it but it makes total sense!! I’m jotting that down in my notebook as I type :)
