I had thought that it might be hard to
snap a child in his best emotion. Then I realized that kids always
have the most honest expressions. Therefore, I did not get any
significant hurdles snapping this boy. The main difficulty was just
dealing with his super active movements. Yet, gratefully with one and
two lures, he was able to follow my direction. Hence, from the
several snaps, I chose this one as the best.
I did not purposely make this photo as
fashion snap, yet it partly comes that way in natural. Although this
boy looks chic in his coat and hat, I never thought this photo will
look fashionable. Yet, talking about being fashionable in
photography, this snap has it all. The costumes and the tones
were very supportive. Kids are always cute in adults’ costumes.
Yet, I did not want to erase all the childlike nuances, thus I let
him bring a doll.
Fortunately, when I was taking this
photo, the background nuance was in the same tone with this boy
costumes. This is the most beautiful railway I found. Not only
because it is so tranquil, but the nature is very pretty. I did not
take much effort for this photo since the grass and plants colors are
naturally brownish-green.
I intended to make a concept like
coming back to the homeland and it was a success. The light of the
sky was not too bright or too dim. The sky was yellowish, so it fell
beautifully on the street and the grass. I think the season played
the best role when I tried to create such background.
Working with this little model was
quite funny. Although I did not forcibly make them with certain
postures, he followed the harmony naturally. I think he is quite good
in positioning his body. He was simply staring at us and bringing two
items in both hands.
When you look at this snap deeper, the
items in both hands impress different feeling. The suit with
scratches looks mature and classic. Meanwhile, the doll impresses his
cuteness. I did not tell him to bring the doll in a specific way,
therefore this child focus comes naturally.
I hope in my next work with kids will
come as good as this photo. The most interesting part is, of course,
dressing them and indirectly luring them to make a certain pose.
