However, there is a time in our daily lives when our mind functions closest to its a childlike state: at night, while we dream. So it’s easier said than done when it comes to thinking like a child! There is a saying that there is a little bit of ‘kid’ in each of us! The fact is that as we grow up, we can lose our sense of wonder, and a child’s naivety. Sources where we can look for inspiration are: children’s books, the drawings of children, animated films, the adventures that they are always telling us of, and their ‘theories’ about all kinds of things! We may be surprised by how many interesting elements we can find in these sources, and how we can use them in our photography. If we aspire to see the world as a child sees it, we have to be subject to the same stimuli and look for our inspiration there. Inspiration and creativity are fundamental aspects of any artistic activity. Today I’m sharing a few tips on how can we photograph children ‘through their eyes’, and thereby evoke a magical, whimsical world. I’ve always been curious about how children see the world, and my background in psychology helped me to gain better insight into the fragmented and borderless way in which the child exists in the world.įor this reason, when I started photographing children, I soon felt the need to bring to my photos this magical way of seeing and being in the world, as if an image was photographed by the child’s own eyes! This is the world in which we all should live! In childhood everything is true, as dream and reality merge themselves and are one! The world through the eyes of a child is always a new place … colorful, surprising, and unexpected.
There is nothing more truthful than children and their imaginations.
