Insecure... but hey...

Kiddy portraiture. Parents have been asking me to photograph their children.
There is a certain challenge with kids. Their expressions are real and honest.
You cannot make a kid smile, you cannot get them to pose for longer than half
a second. You need to be ready to capture the moment. We took this chap to the
zoo and he was a happy lad. The challenge was to capture it.
