Always remember that the most important thing when photographing people, but perhaps most especially children, is expression. Light is always important in photography; let's face it, you're not going to take many photos without it! But if light is all you are thinking about then you may succeed in recreating the atmosphere of a Rembrandt but fail to capture any sense of personality or life at all. Increasingly I find myself thinking 'expression, expression, expression' to myself during shoots. It doesn't send me far wrong!
