 I wanted to take pictures of her swinging. I had no idea until I got there that she was so bad it. So instead I spent an hour photographing her falling out of the swing. Not entirely candid, in that I brought her to this place, but the epic failures to swing were not part of what we were doing.

You realize that swinging takes a certain amount of skill - not just anyone can master it. :P

Hope no models were injured during the making of this photograph! And while you did capture a 'moment', it doesn't carry a lot of impact (other than to Allison just moments after this!) to the viewer (ie me.)
