A Photo a Week Challenge: Shy

Most photographers have had to deal with at least one subject that just didn’t want to be photographed. This young lady actually has a lot of photographs taken of her (her mom is a professional portrait photographer; you can see her great work at Melina Moore Memories), but last night she was just not in the mood for me to take her picture.

IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE A PHOTO OR TWO OF RELUCTANT SUBJECTS, HUMAN OR OTHER.

What do you consider your most challenging photo get? What subject was the hardest for you to convince to finally sit for a photo or not? How many of us have pictures of the back of a head or a hand in front of a face? Now is the time to post them.

Everyone is welcome to participate, even if your blog isn’t about photography.

Here’s how it works:

1. Each week, I’ll come up with a theme and post a photo that I think fits. You take photographs based on your interpretation of the theme, and post them on your blog (a new post!) anytime before the following Thursday, when the next photo theme will be announced.

2. To make it easy for others to check out your photos, title your blog post “A Photo a Week Challenge: (theme of the week)” and be sure to use the “postaday″ tag.

3. Follow nancy merrill photography so that you don’t miss out on weekly challenge announcements.
