I’m interested in you shooting my son

Over the last month I’ve done five photoshoots with kids. I came into this project expecting a challenge and it hasn’t disappointed. I’m getting more comfortable with directing them and have gotten a better sense of when to let them goof off and when to be strict.

The one thing I haven’t gotten comfortable with is the phrase, “Shooting Kids” or any variation thereof. “I’m interested in you shooting my son” reads the subject line of an email from a model’s father. Really Dad? You don’t want to rephrase that statement?

  1. Ha! That reminds me of the time I showed up at a highschool for a shoot and almost said to the security guard, “Hi, I’m here to shoot the kids.” This of course while carrying a large black duffel bag.

    Nice shot by the way.
