Children Portraiture

I was accompanying Master LH Tan to youth park to shoot children portraiture yesterday. It was pretty challenging to capture the best moment of the littles. They don't smile or show happy expression when they are posing to you. And their action are quick so I will have to use Manual Mode and set it to high speed shutter for lightning quick capture and big aperture to blur the background. I end up sweating for that one hour sessions.
