Toddlers can be dynamic and challenging, however when you step into their world to capture their genuine emotion, you'll find pure magic in your work. Join Shiloh as she navigates photographing toddlers with you in this shoot-a-long. She will address concerns and challenges, and share the tools needed to best engage with toddler children and their families. These ages can be unpredictable and sometimes require more energy than most. Shiloh will share prompts, tips, tricks, and games that will help you bring the most genuine connection out of young children during your session. You will be photographing a toddler and his/her family indoors. Please bring a wide angle lens (preferably a 35mm) or a 50mm portrait lens.
