Have patience. I spend close to an hour getting this one shot. I probably had 100+ other shots but this is the one that I liked the best. Experiment with camera angles and lighting, although the natural light was pretty good on this day. Also try different focal lengths and depths of field as that makes a difference in the final outcome of the image.
