I love to photograph people. Why? Photographing people well is a very challenging thing to do and the reward for me and them is huge. I love it when I sit down with a client to review their images and they say things like "WOW" or "I love them".
Not because they like my work, that's always nice, but the bigger reason is they're liking themselves and how they look. I've had people have life changing moments when see their photos. They may not realize it at that moment, but their self image and confidence can be changed in an instant, they actually start liking themselves more and will maybe even decide to do something different with their life. It's happened before and could happen to you. The rewards are also simple things like bringing joy to a parent or loved one. Your portrait session will mark this point in time and you will look back later and realize the changes in your life from that point onward.
Some random comments on my work:
"Awesome job! I just checked out your web site and I love it! I love your work man."
"You've got some incredible pieces and I admire your professional work."
"Your so freakin awesome behind the camera..."
"Awww!! I really really like that... You're so $#@%^& talented!"
"I am a portrait photographer in Winterset, Iowa. I happened upon your website. Phenomenal work!!!" -- www.nordstromphoto.com
