Candid Photography

Candid photography is a type where the photographer aims to capture a photograph of what would normally be an uncatchable moment. Candid photographs aren't "overly posed" and they tend to capture the subject in moments of pure thought, laughter, surprise, heartbreak, anger, etc. I personally like candid photography because it allows you to capture people in a different light.

Here are my top 3 tips when it comes to capturing a candid photograph- 

1) Continue to shoot photographs even when the subject isn't looking, this will ensure that you get a few candid shots among all the other posed shots. 

2) Make your subject laugh and give a real smile by telling jokes and shooting at the same time.

3) Take photographs while your subject is distracted - for example, the flower photographs above. This will ensure that you have some extra interesting non posed photographs.
