But despite this, they are still cute little angels, making us want to pick up our cameras and record their every moment.

The most important thing in taking pictures of children is to be patient and tactful. Here are some tips for taking pictures of children, which may help you take pictures of children more naturally.

Make friends with children

In order to take good photos, nature cannot stand high above us. We must become good friends with our subjects, even though they are still children. Once we get familiar with each other, nature will not feel embarrassed and will show the most real and natural side. But making friends with children is different from making friends with adults. They are less likely to peruse you and express their real emotions. So we need to spend some time talking with them and paying attention to their interests, so that children can understand your friendliness and approach you without fear.

Take pictures as soon as possible

It's hard for a child to focus on something for a long time, so when we see what a child is doing, it's best to pick up the camera and take a picture, because no one knows how long he will lose interest in what he is doing. But we should not control them, do not command them to do anything, the results may not be very satisfactory, let them play, you just need to play your observation and seize the moment ability.

Enter their world

You can't take a picture of a child standing tall like that. First of all, you need to lower your body, level your vision with them, or sit on the ground or squat down; in short, your lens should not be higher than the child's head. Lowering it to the level of the children's eyes can help us interact with the children better, and also enable us to take more background details and see things from the children's perspective.

Look at the camera

Getting kids to look at the camera may not be easy, but it's best not to tell them to. You can be a little narrow-minded, for example, let the child's parents behind you, so that the child may be playing at the same time unconsciously look at their parents a few eyes, will also look in the direction of your camera, seize this opportunity, take a picture.
