there's many child photographers that might not show this photo in a client's gallery. they might think it's not perfect. the boy's not smiling. one eye is bigger than the other in this shot. he doesn't exactly look happy. but you know what--i *love* it. it's beautiful. it's real. and it's perfect. sometimes i wonder if i see things in photos that others might not. maybe i do. but i've come to terms with that. i think that it's part of my style--that i love the photos that aren't completely polished or perfect...as most would see perfect. in the past, i've often wondered if i should show photos like this. now, in being true to myself...i always do. this is who i am. perfectly imperfect.
