I am a people person and so my first goal is that the person I am photographing is at ease, otherwise you will never get the pictures you are after. Also patience, there is so much time involved in getting a gig, traveling there, and setting up the equipment, so why rush the important part? The actual photo shoot is a big deal to the person who hires you, so it is important that they are not rushed but are a priority.
And then there are the pictures! I try to get angles and lighting that captures the image that the client is trying to portray and to make them look their best. At the end of the shoot I want them to have exactly what it is that they were after, and to have fun on the journey to getting those images.
I love photography and I have always liked people, so what I like about my job is that I get to do something I love while constantly getting to travel and meet new and exciting clients.
