We were photographing at a well-known local park with a remarkable tree that served as a focal point. It gave us a place to interact with nature and to show kids just being kids. The local duck pond is another great location for photographing children interacting with nature. Children feeding ducks, finding branches on the ground in the green fields, and running among apple blossoms make for bright colorful images. Children don’t necessarily need to be in formal dress for beautiful pictures. A pair of overalls among the farms hills is quite appropriate, beautiful, and memorable.
Children give us the best photo opportunities when they are relaxed. Places for new discovery are wonderful. However, some children are most comfortable with what they know. With young children especially, it may be best to stick to your own backyard or the local park. This way, you don’t need to be concerned with feeding and nap times. The wonderful thing about children is that what is old hat to us old folks is likely new to them in some way.
