short people

[Shadowbox]

What do short people do when trying to get photos of taller people? I am constantly standing on my toes trying to get a photo. Do you carry a foot stool with you? I think I may end up doing that, keeping one on my vehicle. I just never had one and if there was nothing else nearby to stand on like stairs then I end up having photos with the top of peoples heads chopped off or if I go to a lower angle and look up to get their full head then the shorter people around them disappear from the picture.. hmph!

I'd consider a hard case so you can stand on it and use it for them to sit on if needed.

Stilts.

one of those little step chairs you can buy cheap for around the home? Doubles as a chair or camera support if needed?

Yes I don't have one now but I am going to pick one up, I just wondered how practical it is to carry it everywhere like I do my camera.

Platform shoes from the 70's. Be sure to wear tie dye too.

Actually, a taller shoe probably isn't too bad of an idea depending on the season
