Children’s Headshots

August 17, 2010

Childrens Headshots in Michigan I had a phone call last week from a potential client asking  if I photographed children…hummm.  It made me take a look at my website with a critical eye towards children.  I only had one image of a child.  I can definitely see why she asked.

Todays post is in response to Aurora V Photography inquiring about how I test with models. She mentioned there is not much online, but I do know it’s a hotly debated topic on Model Mayhem.
