I always have a difficult time capturing her, when she’s aware of the camera.
This time, I was able to photograph surreptitiously, with the help of the Ice Light (on the table).

Surreptitious and candid, perhaps, but still so finely composed. I love how the background molding frames C and the repeating rectangles give it a delightfully relaxed spatial rhythm. Catching C unaware of the camera may be rare, but the finesse of your compositional eye is delightfully constant.
Thank you Greg. The composition is always important me. Even with these sorts of shots, I look for balance.
Very nice image Peter. This is where the ice light is a gem to use. I find as my children have grown up, the harder it is to take candid portraits. As you say they become a bit more aware of the camera. The innocence of child hood is such a special time to create images. The fact it is harder is a signal that things are changing and your daughter is growing up.
A very mature “take” on the matter Andrew. I wouldn’t expect anything less from you.
