The other night I had about an hour to photograph 50 kids. I set up my lights in a hallway of a brand new public library, told each kid to take a seat on a stool I had brought. I set up a white portable backdrop behind them. They had all come from a long day of school and hadn’t dressed for the occasion. I needed to move fast, find the best angle, and get them to laugh if I could. Here are some pictures…I’d love to do more jobs like this one. Fast and fun!
Canvas Prints
Posted: September 1, 2010 by Judy Licht Photography in Children, General, Portraits, TeensThe best part of working as a photographer is trying something new. I had a great shoot in the park with three handsome brothers. It was a beautiful day and everyone was in a great mood. We spent an hour trying different poses, very relaxed and comfortable with the creek running behind us. When I got home, I downloaded the images, made a collage, and sent it off to be printed on a 20-30 canvas frame. Looking forward to more photos sessions like this one.
Teenagers are great to shoot, and it is especially fun to point a camera at them when they're supposed to be behaving seriously. The principal of our local middle school asked me to take pictures of all the teachers, and when I walked into each classroom, without fail, at least five kids zeroed in on me, grabbing my attention, making faces, waving their arms, and shouting commands begging me to focus on them.
I found my favorite spot, just as I was leaving – the stairwell, and I'm planning to go back next week to catch some more kids as they move through their day.
Working at schools is energizing because you see the obvious — those hyperactive, attention-getting teens, but you also find the quiet ones whose intensity captures your imagination.
And of course, the teachers are the core of the school…you'll see the principal and her staff, too.
