From Jay P Morgan,
Today on The Slanted Lens we are photographing children for a commercial project at Prestige Preschool Academy. I will share some of the tips that I have learned over the years when it comes to photographing children. We will discuss how to get into their world quickly and produce the best images with the most efficient set ups. We will also look at how to quickly create the look of window light when shooting on the run. Let's get started and see what we can do. Keep those cameras rolling and keep on clickn'.

This was probably the best shoots I've seen with children. I love how nothing is posed and it's all just capturing moments of children being children. It's so cute. I totally missed being a kid watching this! These pictures actually sparked emotion and I think that's what made this so special! Thank you for this!

[@naomitate3710]

Youre so cool! I dont suppose Ive watch anything like this before. So good to find someone with some original ideas on this subject. realy thank you for starting this up. this youtube video is something thats needed on the net, somebody with slightly originality. useful job for bringing one thing new to the internet!
