Beginner Little Freya

[Major]

Hi folks.

Few candids of little Freya . It's my partner's friend's granddaughter, saw her first time so didn't really ask for any poses at all, but she happily let me take few snaps.

Today was little diferent. We had little Freya for bit longer than yesterday and I was given green light with some "studio" shots. Problem is - I don't have studio

I addapted my daughter's bedroom (by throwing all kinds of stuff off the bed and attaching white bed sheet to the wall behind it. It kind of worked, Freya's mum and grandma liked effect a lot .

Now this was completely new experience to me. Finding the sweet spot for lightstand wasn't difficult, but work with such little child was indeed. Complete lack of control as such over child, unplanned movements, breaks every few minutes and most important - her safety. I found it very stressful when posing her and after few attempts of froggy pose I realised I am not skilled enough and called it off. I also had big help from my girlfriend and Freya's grandma as they tried to keep her looking at me, smiling or at least not crying etc.

I surely learnt something new today. It sure as hell was worth it!
