On this day, we were walking around looking for pictures, and while the group was photographing something else (what I can’t recall at the moment), I happened to look down and saw these two cute kids tucked into the doorway of this colorful house. Although my first instinct was to ‘shoot quickly’ to get a candid photo, I really don’t like to shoot ‘down’ on kids, so I decided to kneel down to be at eye level with them. I asked them (in Spanish) to look at me, and they did for a few frames, but then they got silly – and that’s when I got the better photo! Kids just know how to have fun no matter where they live. I loved that she was wearing a soft green in contrast to his red shirt – and that the house essentially echoed the color scheme. It’s so wonderful when things work out like this.
