Portrait: Children


Portrait photography normally focused on taking photos of people. In this photography concentrations are always given to the face, where not only the images are captured but also the emotions. Good portrait photography will emphasize on the emotions shown by the subject; happy, anger, sad, etc.

When photograph children, they do not bother to pose for the camera, so we have to be patient and look for the precise moment to release the shutter as children are spontaneous and natural...   

To take a portrait photograph, I used the biggest aperture possible, bring the subject out of the background (make the background blur) and concentrate on the subject.


This photo of Muhammad Danish Iman was taken in November 2010 at Langkawi Island while he was playing with the rabbits.

For close-up portrait, focus on the eyes. Not sure what he was thinking at that moment...

Thank you.
