I am about to be asked to photograph the entire (group shot) 5th grade class at my daughter's school. The end result is to be an 8x10 for each child. Am I being asked because of my reputation as fantastic Leica phtographer? No, I am being asked because the parent organization cannot afford to pay a professional. So, some mother stood up in the meeting and said "Katherine's dad is always taking pictures, maybe we could ask him?" Any advice would be greatly appreciated. The parents and principal want an outdoor shot so the kids can stand on the hill outside the school. I have to check the Sun angles, but I may be shooting midday. I will hope for overcast skies. I only have 35mm equipment, Leica and Nikon with my widest lense being 24mm on my 24-120 Nikkor zoom. The widest Leica is 35mm Summilux or Summicron. I may be able to access the roof of the school and shoot down. This may work as the top of the hill is just about even with the roofline. Thanks in advance folks.
