In most cases, conveying a message is not that difficult. You simply have to think before you click the shutter.
Ask yourself what you want your picture to say. Once you have defined it, you are then able to figure out how best to capture it
on film. Occasionally, you will see an expression before you in a candid shot, you will also have to capture it quickly before it is interrupted.
Try to engage the subject in conversation to create an easy going rapport. If you are photographing children, ask them to tell you what their favorite toys are to play with, or if they have a pet. Developing a trusting relationship with your subject is key to successful portrait photography, especially if someone is uncomfortable in front of the camera.
