I am also an avid, award winning, amateur photographer in the Plainwell Michigan area, specializing in candid portraits in natural settings.
I love getting those perfect pictures taken when least expected.
The trick is to zoom in and wait, you have to anticipate the next move of your subject and take as many shots as you can, hoping that one of them will be that amazing picture you were hoping for. Expect to get dirty, you will be crawling and laying on the ground, following children up playsets and moving fast to get the next shot.
Not all your pictures are for beauty, this is a perfect example of a child caught showing exactly was he was feeling, worry and fear. Looking back, these are great shots to capture a moment.
Always remember that everyday events can produce amazing pictures, the kids playing in the leaves on a sunny fall day.
And drinking from the hose on a hot summer day.
Things you see everyday, if framed in a certain way can also make great pictures. This next one won best of show.
