A Note on Photography

Starting and continuing with photography is a constant pursuit of stillness. A stillness that moves us. A perfectly timed snap in space so candid, so natural, if even so staged. Always refining, reframing, repositioning, retouching, realizing there is more in less. Positive vibes and negative space, rule of thirds and broken rules, leading lines and swirly bokeh.

Is there photography in me? The ability and desire. A hobbyist or a professional photographer? A portrait photographer, a headshot photographer, or a professional photographer near me? An engagement photographer, wedding photographer, maternity photographer, family portrait photographer, baby photographer, fur-baby photographer, cats and dogs. More than ever before we take photos everyday. All of us, photographers of life, of existence, memories in our pockets, on the cloud, in our minds and in our soul.

Is there a photographer near me? Yes. You. You are a photographer near you. In your hand, in your pocket, photography is in your grasp, as it is for all of us. Limitless numbers of still images are suspended in the ether. If there is ever any doubt that you are capable of great photography, if there’s ever any deficit of will, or time, or availability, pick up your mobile phone, and call me for quote, and rest easy knowing your memories will be captured and preserved with the greatest care and intention.
