I love photographing cute and happy children! Being a child photographer can be very rewarding. There’s nothing like bringing a child to the local park and capturing them in a state of complete happiness.
In San Diego, the whole city is my backdrop. There are so many different areas of San Diego that make a picture perfect backdrop for any child. The photos I took here of Nathan were taken at a local park in Otay Ranch. The park is only a couple of years old but the city maintains the area to keep it in tip top shape.
Nathan was ecstatic to stretch his legs in this large fun-filled park. Having him in such a great mood enabled me to photograph him in nonchalantly. I’d say that I am very good with children. I’ll do anything to make them laugh. Nathan was shy when we first met but after he got used to me he opened up.
I believe the key to great child photography is being able to turn yourself into a child. Think like them and act like them. Child photography isn’t easy because many children do not stand in one place.
To get the photographs of Nathan I was practically running around on the playground. I followed him down the slides, over the bridge and down the poles. So here it is, photos of Nathan:

Such a cute little guy! I love the series of him peeping through the hole – so cute!
Thanks Erin! It’s almost like he read my mind. He just started acting cute and looking through that hole.
He is a natural! Great job photographing him!
