All The Small Things


So my previous shoot of Mia and Jonie must have been a success as I was asked to photograph one of their friends children.....

Used the same tactic as before, begin shooting at the home so that they are in familiar surroundings and if this was unsucessful we had a nearby location to go to that had more space.



Balloons seem to be a winner with children, until the nasty sharp blades of grass catch them, BANG, or is it POP? and we nearly have tears. So out comes another one, and the corner of a wall strikes, BANG, the slight jump and semblance of tears again...



The time produced plenty of opportunity for good images of Edie so re-location was not neccessary.


However I didn't produce as many images of Nancy (above) with her not being at the mobile stage of life yet.(But I think we got enough)


Postscript: one new skill is emerging from this, I am becoming quite adept at shooting and blowing up a balloon!
