<\/p>\nEveryone loves kids. Even people who say they don\u2019t love kids have a soft spot for the little ones, and those people without children often adore the children of their friends and relatives. Their bright, smiling faces reflect so much hope and promise, so much unsullied enthusiasm and happiness they make us happy in turn. That\u2019s one reason they\u2019re as popular as the subjects of photos on canvas placed on our walls to brighten up the rooms in our homes.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Getting those perfect shots, though, is another matter entirely. Part of that sweet, innocent enthusiasm kids exude is a bit of chaos, and getting them to sit still for a photo usually results in complete failure or the stiff, bland-faced pose of the \u201crecently yelled at”. No one wants \u201cshell shocked\u201d to be an expression on the faces of your children when you hang those pictures on the walls \u2013 here\u2019s how to get awesome, natural photos of your kids without yelling, bribing \u2013 or Photoshop.<\/p>\n
Does it feel like cheating? Maybe \u2013 but your kids won\u2019t look any more angelic and peaceful than when they\u2019re off in dreamland resting up for tomorrow\u2019s adventures. Babies are ideal when they\u2019re asleep, of course, but even older kids can be snapped discreetly while sleeping. Depending on their age you might want to ask their opinion or permission before slapping a sleepy photo of them on the wall \u2013 but there\u2019s no doubt the photo will make for some awesome photos on canvas.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s easy to set up your camera in a corner of the kids\u2019 playroom and attach a cheap timer to the shutter. Choose a good angle and put the camera in a spot that won\u2019t be noticed, then set the timer to click the shutter every minute or so. Then just relax and let the kids be kids. Later in the day, you\u2019ll have hundreds of shots to look through \u2013 and we guarantee at least one will be absolutely perfect. No one composes a photo better than the universe itself \u2013 your kids will be caught in mid-adorable, guaranteed.<\/p>\n
