Wow thanks Marla! It is my pleasure just sharing what I've learnt - and I am still learning!

Simple economics drove first wet/dry plate, and then film photogs to be more mindful of the pictures they made. Advances in technology have monumentally decreased the cost of a single picture and the old adage of seeing is believing is now forever changed by the advent of Photoshop. Camera phones and Social Networks make us constantly aware and in check, and as such, we perform, thereby altering the reality of real life.

What factuality is left for photographers outside the studio? Unguarded - and now rare - moments of raw emotion (everyone is performing but there will be "windows"). The fleeting expression. The freezing of time. This is the work still left to do. Is there more?

Wow, so true. This is certainly what I aim for in my work, but it's not easy. Guess that's the ever constant challenge that makes it so worthwhile when you do capture moments in those "windows".

Thanks Jen...:))

I stand corrected. It's a 5dii, TWO CANON LENSES and
a Gitzo tripod kit and Litepanels Camera Light?! $5k worth of gear people! GET TO IT!

Thank you for posting this! I have had an idea for a while now and now I can at least get the idea out there. I'm so excited! :-)

*timidly raises hand* :)

Of course Steph! all of you are gorgeous!

Thanks Terri! :)
