Taking Candid Pictures
So many people are buying digital cameras these days and making it so easy to take photographs. Some pictures people take are posed and not really showing the mood, or personality of the subject. Professional photographers use special lighting, props, and pose their subjects. So how does the ordinary person capture a subjects true personality and emotions.
Christine Peppler says in this online photography article: “Some shots don’t require posing. Many of the most meaningful shots are taken as subjects interact or are engaged in an activity. From images of children at play, a spouse reading the morning paper, a parent and child talking, or grandma gardening these are the moments that reflect the true personality of subjects.”
Remember to keep a distance from your subject by using the digital camera’s zoom lens so you don’t interrupt the activity or mood of the subject. One of my favorite pictures is of my youngest son fishing. He had no idea I was taking his picture. You could see the deep concentration on his face in the photo. You can also play with lighting effects. You can take pictures inside and also try outside. When taking pictures outside you have many variations from morning light to early evening light, but be aware of shadows.
You can take pictures of your grandchildren at play or sitting with their dog, grandpa reading the newspaper, or drinking a cup of coffee. To get a great candid shot don’t let them know your taking their picture. I love taking candid photos of my grandsons. I personally love candid photos rather then posed photots. Let your imagination go to capture your family and friends at special meaningful moments.
