Just for fun (but...)

Just for fun for now, but I'm considering offering this to customers: a 3x3 storyboard grid of their kid making goofy faces. Opinions on the back of a postcard, please, to our regular address.

I've seen a 5x5 version of infant photography in a friend's house but I can't remember the photographer's name. They were a mix of goofy and cute shots...

Fajitas!

Get it printed and framed perfectly, and it's a rockin' idea.

Reminds me slightly one Beatles album cover
But it is the idea and bringing the idea to life what counts. Good thinking!

Me likey! I think the gap between the photos and what background you use will be very important though.

Nice one - I've done this once or twice and it works a treat. As Sinead says, it's very important to get the background and the divides right. From a business point of view, it's a great product to offer as it's pretty easy to produce and you can charge a relatively high price as it's out of the ordinary

Excellent idea! I really like these. :cool:

DaireQuinlan

Yes, its a great idea. I'd go for some more variety in the expressions though, although it also looks better if the framing of each individual shot is as identical as possible so I don't know how easy that would be.

And obviously, some crying shots aswell. Little babbies with tears brimming up in their eyes. Awwww !

I tried it out with a client yesterday, and caught a smile breaking out:

Ha, that's fantastic. Although what age is the kid ? I'd be tempted to say that it's either a smile breaking out, or a poo

She's just gone seven months.

Actually, I have some hilarious photos of a kid in "the progression of a poo" phases, but I'll only post 1 of them... the most important one obviously!

Fenster

TMI!

DaireQuinlan

heh. I'll raise you a bunch ... this is my kid at about the 2 or 3 month mark I think ...








But enough of this (cute) foolishness, we're de-railing fensters' thread.

KarmaGarda

Actually reminds me. The photographs of that kid stemmed from a "You must take good photos cos you've got a good camera" conversation.

I think its a great idea..As said the 5x5 or 3x3 will work well.. Given me ideas for myself to give it a try..
