The one photography skill that every photographer should learn is how to shoot a portrait. If you own a camera and are into photography, at some point you will be asked to shoot a portrait of someone. If you have siblings or relatives with kids — at some point you will be asked to photograph children.

W.C. Fields famously stated, "Never work with Children or Animals." They are scene stealing and completely unpredictable.

Photographing kids can be a challenge. Unfortunately a lot of photographers make the task much harder than it needs to be.
