How to Photograph Children: Secrets for Capturing Childhood's Magic Moments

This manual offers practical advice on taking photographs of children. After guiding the amateur photographer through such technical basics as which camera, film and exposure to use, the authors offer specific suggestions about shooting indoors and out as well as advice about working with children of different ages. The book concludes with information about how to get the best work out of the photofinisher, even if it's just your local one-hour mini-lab. Throughout, sidebars offer additional information on everything from speed films to "smile getters", and the 200 photographs provide examples of what to do - and what not to do - when photographing children of every age and temperament.
