I have been asked to spend a day in a junior school next week taking photographs for the school brochure. No pay, just covering expenses. I don't have a problem with this, I love trying out all kinds of new photo situations, and I especially love this kind of informal, "follow the action" kind of situation. I'm really looking forward to it.
There are a range of activities happening, including orchestra practice. I imagine I will also be taking photographs of normal school activities through the day. I'm hoping that after an initial period of self-consciousness the kids will almost forget I'm there.
I have available, 17-55DX, 70-200 VR (+TC-17e if necessary), 24-120 VR and SB-800.
I'd really welcome any advice and thoughts from forum members about how to get the best out of this situation.
