As I've grown in this industry, I've realized what it truly means to be a photographer. It is someone you can trust and build a connection with to be able to bring out the most authentic you and have the ability to capture that. It is less about posing and creating the perfect moment & more about letting that moment naturally happen, capturing the beauty in the imperfection. Real photographs so much better.  Not only do you want a photographer that has the skill to capture these moments but one who knows the importance of a dad and daughter moment and the groom hugging his grandma. I notice it all without the need to step in and direct.
