I have taken a ton of pics of my ODD in gym, on all events, and I think I am getting pretty good. She loves sharing them with her friends, and our family back home love seeing them. My ODD has a wide open gym and she's often there with few other people, which makes it easy.
But, I have virtually no pics of my YDD because the set up of her gym (and usually her meets) makes photographing her harder. The equipment is all on top of each other and there are usually a ton of kids using it all. Next weekend I will have the chance to take some pics of my YDD in her gym while it's empty- she will be the only kid there. She can use any of the equipment and I can move around freely.
Here's my question. With trampoline, what's the best angle for good shots. Should I be level with it? Shooting up? Shooting down? Every pic I have of her is from far away and from some bleachers at comps- and I only seem to have DM. Also, are there any T&T skills that photograph especially cool or especially awful, in general? There is no leaps or jumps like with my ODD to fall back on.
Her gym is kind enough to give me a little time to get what I need and I want to use it wisely. I don't have a fantastic camera, but it is ok. The gym is very well lit and has pretty good natural light too. These don't need to look professional, since I am not a professional, but I wanna do the best I can. Thanks for any tips!
