Two people in every picture

When we first opened our "official" studio - you know - when you have a space that isn't half of your living room, my sister Wendy sent me a plant. Attached to that plant was a quote by Ansel Adams... "In every picture there are two people - the viewer and the photographer." Watering that plant this morning (the quote is still attached) got me thinking about why I love to do what I do. I get to be one of those 2 people! And the viewer - how cool is that - I get the chance each time I click my shutter to create something to view - a picture to illicit a response from a mom... a bride... a loved one...

We show our clients a slide show of their photos when they come to view our offerings to them. Always get a giggle when I hear brides and grooms comment on their memories of the day as they watch... love to hear the ahhhs or "I love that one" from a mom and dad as they see their little one.

Getting to be the photographer... and getting to know the viewer - this is the best job to have!

Besides clicking the shutter, Jess occasionally lets me create an album :) and thought you'd like a sneak preview of one.

To our friends in Atlanta, enjoy this incredibly warm summer day we are having in March! - Beth
