"say monkeys"
(all kids think monkeys are funny)
Tip Credibility: 5 |
| Use a brightly colored camera. All kids, infants included, naturally will look at a bright color. I've seen a pro use a bright shocking pink camera and he always had the kids looking his way. Tip Credibility: 4 |
| Use perspective - a shot from an area above them or low and looking up can capture a real different perspective of a posed, straight on shot. Tip Credibility: 4 |
| On most digital cameras, there is an option to have the camera take a whole string of pictures very fast. Get the kids to laugh, and you will have a bunch of good pictures to choose from. Tip Credibility: 4 |
