Kids Club Shoot

As the youth itself is technically another outreach the church runs on a Sunday morning alongside the main service, I had planned to use my time of working with the kids to document/ photograph them and their activities. This is what I had anticipated completing, but certain things did not go as planned.

Strengths:
- The kids responded well to my instruction.
- I focused well on getting head shots and catching their personality; with them naturally laughing etc.
- Due to knowing the kids, generally they responded well to me which made them easier to photograph.

Weaknesses:
- Not so keen on the location, due to the church being in a school.
- Lighting was weaker than initially thought, during shoot I felt comfortable but some of the images could have been improved.
- I initially didn't plan this shoot with the idea of letting the kids lead me. This would have worked if I had originally documented them during there activities.
- Due to timings I left myself a short amount of time to photograph, making me more conscious of how long I had.
