Wow, I´m amazed..

Some days ago, I drove thorugh the place where David and I got married. All this spring, summer and now autoumn, I´ve been thinking that I want to photgraph my children right there, -but I haven´t done it.
But this day, I sent a sms to my friend [link] and asked if we should take a day out there, just in cause of photographing our FIVE children. And so we did.

It was so fun. Of course it´s difficult to capture five children the way you might have planned out, but we did get som photos. Of course I had to forget to use the Fnumber the way I wanted to, so every photo got more DOF that I like.. But it was fun!

I´ve been longing to submit some of the portraits I´ve taken of other children through the years, but I haven´t done it because I always felt that it´s important to ask the parents if its okey first. And I guess THAT was difficult for me. But now I pushed myself, and asked some of them, so I hope to add some more to my portraits album in the future.

Another thing I did, was to add a message in my facebook profile. I asked if there were any parents that would like to get their children photographed for free, just so that I could get the experience and fun of it, and might add a picture to my gallery. -And I got so many responses!! So now I got THREE photoshoots only this week! Yeeeyyhh I´m so happy! And a bit scared. Cause I dont have the equipment that I´m dreaming of. But I´ll do my best anyways.

I kinda regret that I didn´t say that I want just a little money... Then I could at least SAVE for the equipment I´m longing for... But hey, maybe later...

I´m going on a fotoshoot tomorrow, and the parents has agreed on me submitting some of the photos.. Hope for good results!

Anyways, I´ve noticed that it´s more easy to get comments and fave´s on macrophotos of flowers. Maybe because childrensportraits are more "private"? Maybe people feel that they have to know the faces, to like them? What do you think?
