The Child

Poway, CA

Patti Bean invited Audra and her son Oliver to be our models for my lesson on portrait photography. We had a delightful time in Poway Park, and I shot a ton of pictures. I am intrigued that I chose this more “edgy” photo to post instead of one of lovely Audra. Patti gave me the idea for this shot.


Canon EOS 5D ,Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM

Robin you captured a perfect expression on the boy's face. The precise moment, I'd say. Vote.

Just wondering what Audra's looking at.

'Yoo hoo! I'm over here Audra!"

Very good idea to focus and shot the way you did, It shifted accents and made the image more interesting. Great work Robin. Vote

This is a lovely shot of Oliver - his expression of slight surprise is charming.
