Real

Often, I find that the vast majority of my work can be described in 3 words: happy, bright, and energetic. This is something that I love and my clients appreciate because nobody wants a picture of a sad little child on their mantle.

Every so often, I will ask a subject to do a pouty face (this is usually to make them loosen up) or make no face at all and just let go of their "chucky cheese" smile completely. These images, where there is no pose, just genuine emotion in front of my camera.. that is the real moment. When I look at this picture, so many emotions flood my brain and that is how I want all of my images to be... whether they are happy, bright, energetic, or downright tear-provoking.

Beautiful.
