What are candid shots? what are posed shots? compare and contrast some of the advantages and disadvantages to these two approaches.

Candid shots are used when a child is playing or moving often, showing how they are in real life instead of for a photograph. Posed shots are where you would have to sit for a photo, for example. Posed shots might give off a more “perfect” look but they don’t look as natural. In candid shots, it might be a little hard to get the child doing the activity in the right position since they are making their own choices of what to do for the photograph, but they give great results.
