We all have that favorite picture that we can’t let go. We maybe carry it in our wallet or purse. We maybe even have it clinging to our mirror at home, or on our desk at work. But ask yourself, what makes your picture so special? Is it of that special someone? A loved one perhaps? A special place that you would like to go to? An artistic portrait that shows who you really are? Or is it a glimpse of the past? What kind of photography moves you? For me, I have always been drawn to fashion portraits. Why? Because it is like a fantasy to me. You can play dress up, create a magical moment, and save it. It is rare for a person to be walking around with an outrageous outfit all of the time, or wear huge headpieces to work on a daily basis. It just isn’t the norm. But during the shoot, it is expected and embraced. That is what I love about it. It allows for creativity and there are no limits. Most of all, I find it to be fun. Lately, I must confess, I have been drawn more towards children’s portraits. Probably because they are of my special loved one. Before, I was very objective when I came across them, but now it is different. It is different because I now have a loved one who I feel takes the most beautiful portraits in the world. Am I playing favorites? Of course I am. And now I ask you, what kind of photography moves you? Feel free to comment and post your favorite picture. I look forward to seeing them!
