Thinking too Much

Some people just think too much and others, not at all. You can never have an opinion anymore without it offending someone or some thing, causing some sort of personal uproar. I like opinions, I enjoy that each of us can contribute our life experience to bond and appreciate one another for what it is or isn’t and live. With that said Dean and I had a new experience this past weekend.
We met new photography clients (this part of photography is what I really enjoy)! This particular family heard about us from a co-worker. After seeing Dean’s photos, in the locker/break room at work she asked about us. Presentation in this case is important but not so much so that we really have to ’sell’ our product. In this aspect, we can let the product speak for itself. Our focus was more on capturing the personality of the family and really having shots that express them. So in our meeting we focused on what they like, which setting would make them comfortable, etc.
By Saturday, I was nervously excited. I knew that Dean was getting into his groove. I called to touch base with the client and make sure everything was still a go for the day. After meeting them, Dean guided them to just be themselves. They played a game of dominoes on the floor as Dean was clicking away with his D300. We shot for about 1 and a half hours, took about 350 photos and came out with some really beautiful shots! With permission, we will eventually post them but for now you’ll just have to imagine how spectacular they are!
Now we’re on to our next big endeavor!
Will post later, start thinking . . . stay tuned.
