“Children's charm lies in the fact that with each child everything is renewed and the world anew appears before the judgment of man.”
© Gilbert Keith Chesterton, English writer, philosopher.
Some photographers say: “Working with children is difficult." I don't agree with it.
You just get to know the baby first:
- Hello, my name is Ira, and what's your name? What do you like to play with? Do you like to dance? I love it! Let's dance together!
That's how I start any children's photo session: we run and dance, catch dragonflies or butterflies, eat ice cream, fantasize ... We aren't a grown-up photographer and a kid model. We are simply Ira and her new friend. And that's the whole secret of a successful child photography.
