Wondering why your kids looks “terrible” on the camera? Here are the keys to take a good picture of your kids:

  1. INFANTS look beautiful on the camera while they are asleep. Use natural light and avoid flash if possible. Keep the image tight on the child and crop out distractions. When your baby is awake, have another person to accompany him or her. You can crop the shot to keep that other person out of the image, or you can keep both of them in the photo.

  2. TODDLERS look best when they don’t know that you’re taking a picture of them. Use the candid shots for them. Keep your camera handy and snap the photo quick when they start doing something. They don’t have to be looking directly into the camera.

  3. CHILDREN AGES 4 PLUS are look good at sitting for photos. If you want to dress them up, make sure that they are comfortable with that costume. Crop tight on your subject, use natural light. If you are using toy to get their attention, make sure it makes them laugh, not make them scared.

  4. OLDER CHILDREN are good at dressing up for photos. What you need is how to get a natural smile from them by saying something funny to them.

Easy isn’t it? Now, say cheese!
