Nobody remembers
the posed ones the way they remember
the rest.
The quiet squeeze of a hand before you walk out. The laugh you didn't plan. Your mum straightening your veil when she thinks no one's watching. That's what I'm there for.
The Approach
Present. Patient.
Quietly watching.
I believe the real photographs, the ones you will still have on your wall in twenty years, happen in the spaces between the schedule. Not when everyone is standing in a line, but when they have forgotten to be anything other than themselves.
I work quietly and I move slowly. I will give you gentle direction for your portraits, enough to make you feel at ease and nothing more. And then I step back and let your day be what it is.
Every detail you spent months choosing, I see it. The ribbon, the flowers, the way the light falls on the table you agonized over. None of it disappears.
