I get this question all the time: How can I take better pictures of my kids? Naturally, not everyone can afford to hire a pro photographer, and much of the time you don't need to. This is usually reserved for special occasions, milestones, or a just once a year type of thing. When I go into a session with a client, I am always more than happy to have them bring their camera and after the session, I show them a few tricks on how to take better pictures on a daily basis.
It occured to me that it would be great to start a forum where moms (and dads of course) can share their ideas on how to take better pictures. Talk about equipment, talk about when to use a flash and when not to, and talk about how to get the best angle. There really isn't such a website right now that I could find where moms talk to each other about this. So... I created one! Now, I envision one day having a full-blown website for this purpose (I own the domain name http://www.momtogs.com/ but I have not developed it yet). For now I am so busy with my own photography sessions that I don't have the time to devote to a website. BUT, I am encouraging anyone who is interested to join my group of meetup.com and starting posting your questions on the messageboard. Here is a direct link to the messageboard: http://www.meetup.com/Momtogs/messages/boards/forum/1128302
If you have questions, feel free to post them, and I will answer them as time permits... or you may get a response from another mom or photographer. This is brand new so please be patient as the messageboard will take time to develop but I truly think you will gain something by posting on it!
