One of my favorite creative directors likes to say I capture the connection. I am not out there documenting what happened when I shoot day-in-the-life; I’m looking for what people are trying to accomplish and how they relate to each other.
When I started this blog and saw “The Art of Connection” planted by WordPress as an example post, I thought that sounded like me. I had to use it.
Until I got stuck editing fitness shoots from other photographers to look like I had photographed them, I didn’t see what that creative director was really talking about. But after editing hundreds of images in places similar to what I had shot before with models doing things I had seen before, I get it.
I’m not looking for the perfect pose. I want the look, the spark, the small shift that feels true. When I shape the space and let people breathe, everyone can settle into who they are and I can focus on the story.
