Although these portraits will never be shown publicly due to integrity rules of my work place I do enjoy making them immensely; taking portraits of children is a challenge and a blessing all in one. Very few children will "pose" for a photo which means you will have to chase not only the child but also the light and your focus. But it is just that spontaneity that gives beautiful photos when all of the factors work together!
For me, this is great practice and I'm proud to say I've gone from taking about 200 photos of one child to get one or two portraits I'm happy about to about 15 nowadays. That progress makes me sure I'm on my way to becoming a better photographer and it is a great feeling!
Since I can't share any of those photos I've uploaded three photos to the Urban Countryside from last weekend in Dalarna.
Until I have more photos to share (which I hope to be soon) I'll share a piece of music/spoken words that has inspired me for a long time; I'm Still Here by Pearl Jam.
