Photography: Capturing the Natural Expressions of Children

It is quite difficult to capture expressions of children with the camera, but it's a rewarding one. Innocence goes with expression, thus it exudes naturalness and candidness. True expressions are as fleeting as childhood is. It comes in a spark, testing the photographer's skill in recording such precious moment.
