creating 'natural' moments

I am in pursuit of creating imagery that is not too 'stagey or posed'
The big complaint from art buyers is that stock is too 'stiff''
In this case I let the girls choose their clothes and dress themselves.
I asked their Mom not to comb their hair or fuss.
The theme was childhood, joy and adventure.
I allowed the girls to do what was natural.
It was their idea to throw the leaves, to roll down the hill
and to collect and gather sticks. All this imagery is available on my stock website.

One of the concepts of homegrownstock is for clients to see the models I work with.
If what they are looking for does not exist,
they can request me to shoot it with the models they like.
