A story in the picture

I’m finding myself treating everyone as if they are an opportunity to photograph. I make a mental picture of moments that I observe and say quietly to myself, " that would make a great picture". Earlier this week we discussed the story that a picture tells. I accidentally captured a moment in a photograph of joy and content of a great man that has been through a very tough year. It is one of those shots that people will remember him by. It was as if you could feel him there in the picture. You knew what he was thinking and you could feel the peace in his heart from being with his children and grandchildren.
I have so much to learn about photography and people in general but I am not afraid to attempt to put on “film” what is in my mind. I am currently seeking willing families, kids, infants, and expectant moms to allow me to share some of their moments with me.
