sometimes nothing will help. i had a shoot where one child was lovely, the gran and parents were sweet, and the boy was feral. i tried everything - offered to do his pic in the woods, with his gun (???), tried to be accomodating, yet not condescending. the whole nine yards. the adults were desperate to get a shot of (at?) him, and horrendously embarrased. so i clicked a candid of him as he broke down his pellet gun. he spat at me.
needless to say, we didn't get one of him, and i think he got a hiding.
o well. sometimes it just doesn't work.
the family was thrilled with the rest of the pics, though , and placed a pretty good order...
