You would think that our twins would get sick of taking pictures, with all of the studio shots I have done of them. They are my advertising boys, on my business card and are the sometimes unfortunate guinea pigs of my experiments whenever I have a new idea.
I realized today while going through the pictures on their little Fisher Price cameras, that not only are they not sick to death of pictures, but they are learning to create images themselves. They pose their action figures, themselves and ME to make their pictures look the way they want.
You're never too young, I guess, to find something you love doing!
Which brings me to my point: our five-year-old twins are arranging items and people to create the images they want, the way they want. Any photography teacher will tell you that a good image is made, not randomly captured. Whether you are taking pictures of your kids playing outside, or arranging a few flowers to look just-so, paying attention to the little things around your subject will pay off in dividends for great shots.
Just a thought for the day...
