I'm going to take the individual portraits and team pictures for my son's football team in a few weeks. At the home game Saturday, I scouted out a few locations for the pictures, but I think this one was the best with the ivy in the background. I wanted to use this cool brick wall at the end of the stadium, but the grass down there was awful when I looked closer. Now, disregard the goofy look on his face in the picture on the left and that he turned his head to see what was going on in the game in the picture on the right. I think I prefer the picture on the right, I could put a helmet by his extended foot and he could hold a football in his arms to make the shot better. Or, I could have them stand holding their helmet or a football. There was also one grassy spot by the bleachers that would work for team pictures, but it might be too much of a hill for individual shots. What do you all think? Any tips?
I actually think if you straightened out his head on pic on right you'd be on target! Background is great. Go with either the helmet or football, probably don't need both. Good luck!
@khirsch@lifepause@amandal@salza@graemestevens Thanks. The right hand picture seems to be the winner, but I should probably take these where they can't see the field and get distracted by the other games going on! LOL!
@jgpittenger@randystreat I'm going to have to find a place where they can't see the game that is going on. My son turned his head just as I snapped the picture to see what all the cheering was about. That may be my biggest hurdle to jump with these kids, that and keeping the little kids from photobombing all my pictures. @paulaw Thanks!
@paulaw Thanks!
