Believe it or not, my job has very little to do with photography skills, though I would like to think I have mastered them pretty well by now.
More than anything, it is about connecting with the people, and sometimes the fur animals, in front of my lens. It is about seeing the unique beauty and strength in each of them, and giving them enough space to simply be in their elements. It is about giving them my wholehearted presence, not just the presence of a camera.
I feel a profound sense of gratitude to be able to spend this kind of time with my muses. They have to trust me deeply to let me into their intimate settings and allow me to be the teller of their stories.
To Amanda and Jaime, please credit yourselves for your candid personalities. It is because of who you are that we all felt that beautiful space of comfort we carved out together on that fine afternoon.
It is a session that I will fondly remember. Thank you, A&J.
