Friday Finds: Child Photography
Children are the reason a lot of people ever get into photography in the first place. It may not start out as their intention, but with a child on the way, many parents-to-be invest in a good digital camera to capture their little bundle’s every milestone. Then they realize they don’t know how to use all the camera’s fancy knobs and features and they start learning, using the most beautiful model bestowed on mankind: their own child.

Whether or not a parent feels a calling as a photographer, most want to take good pictures of their children. Digital point and shoots yield much better results from the average person than any 35mm camera available when I was a kid. Due to the instant feedback digital cameras provide, we’ve mostly done away with super blurry shots or thumbs obscuring the view.
There’s more to capturing good photographs of a child than having a good camera or even knowing how to use it, however.
