Photo session and the role of your photographer.
The good news is, we all have flaws. All. Even the youngsters I photograph. So, it's not like we are fearing something that others aren't fearing also - misery loves company!! But we all have our good stuff, and that is what is up to your photographer to bring out in your images. I always tell my clients, "It's not your job to take a good picture, that's what you have hired me for" . And I totally mean that! As a photographer, it is my job to carefully guide my clients through their session, put them at ease and build their confidence in me. I am 80 percent a cheerleader/coach and 20 percent a photographer. I have spent a lot of time learning how to pay attention to the details, look for the best angles, keep a fresh perspective all while keeping my client at ease and having a good time. My clients often get "the look" when I ask them to do something that seems really awkward. I say "if it feels awkward, it looks good." Then they look at the images and they see it for themselves. After a few of those sneak peeks at the back of the camera, they are usually on-board for my crazy sounding suggestions. I work as hard at making the experience as fun and memorable as I possibly can. There is NOTHING more satisfying to me than to hear my clients say they had a great time and then secondly, to say they love their photos. Mission accomplished!
