Day 118 #Project 365

April 27, 2012 by [ayu]

I have done project 365 for over 100 days, and one thing I know for sure I love in photography is photographing children. Strangely, I only posted a very few children photos to date. Not that I did not take a lot of them, I consciously wanted to try to shoot other things, and posted them instead of the children photos. I feel there is a danger of specialising too much too soon if I only limit myself of photographing little children. […]

Day 108 #Project365

It’s been raining the whole day. We stayed in all morning, that’s when Ms 4 started playing with her new baby, Mika.

Trying to get her to sit still was proven challenging I gave up on asking her to look at me. Ever since I had my kids I started to like taking really close up shots on them. Not always of their faces. Sometimes their chubby little fingers, or […]

Day 75 #Project365

March 15, 2012 by [ayu]

For someone who hates to be photographed Mr 8 certainly knows how to pose. Just a second after he pulled this fierce look, he went back to his usual goof. I had to bribe him so I could get him to sit for me while I took the shot. Yes, the whole 5 minutes, which he complained felt more like an hour. This is actually the kind of photography that I like. Portraits of people, including kids. I love capturing […]
