Relax and Shoot

Something I hear a lot is " I just can't seem to get it perfect".  Whether you are shooting photos of your child or your puppy and you are looking for a specific shot, that perfect shot just doesn't seem to happen.  You are a critic of your own work and you want that photo perfect.  You are looking to capture tiny Joshua's beautiful blue eyes, but he keeps blinking and turning his head. Just consider for one minute that you might be putting a little too much pressure on yourself.  You always find those perfect shots when you dont have your camera right?  Your sitting there watching little Joshua play and he does this cute, sweet little thing and your camera is in the next room.  Your "perfect" shot will come when you aren't trying to hard to capture it.  Sit on the floor and play with Joshua and wait for that gorgeous smile and blue eyes to light up when he is genuinely happy.  When you go back to edit your photos, you will be amazed at what you captured.  Don't ever be afraid to take too many photos.  Out of the 150 photos you snapped, you might find 10 that are just AMAZING!!  Out of those 10 amazing photos, you might just find your "perfect" photo.  Don't be afraid to relax and shoot!! Amazing photos are captured when you least expect it!
