Offering inspiration as well as guidance for portrait photographers to
use during sessions with infants and toddlers--notoriously difficult
subjects for posing--this guide takes a uniquely visual approach to
instruction through its 500 stellar shots. With the challenges faced
while working with children, it is easy to end up in a rut of go-to
poses. The book counters the stock image effect with its broad variety
of creative options, and incorporates experience-based knowledge on
achieving successful results, such as creating a comforting zone for the
child or the potential assistance of integrated props. The poses
highlight what the parents love to see while considering what will work
with even the most willful of young subjects.
