I did a family photo shoot the other night for a friend. It was only my second photo shoot involving small children, and we ran into the issue of the very short sell-by date for children's attention spans.
I had expected something like this, so I used the adults to set up and dial in the lighting. Thinking about the issue, I was wondering if anyone who photographs children a lot has a large doll, or stuffed animal that they use as a stunt double for the kid, for setting up the lighting, background etc.? Has anyone tried this and found that it doesn't work? I was also thinking that it might be handy to try and find a manikin to use in setting up photo sessions of adults. I'd be tempted to paint it with hotrod primer to get something approximating 18% grey. -- Larry Colen [email protected] sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
