Worn Out By Fun

Saturday, July 22 | By: Wehmeier Portraits

Share

Summer camp is quickly coming to a close.

I have often joked with clients that we are a lactose intolerant studio…. No Cheese, please.  I am very fond of a genuine smile.   Actually, I’m fond of any expression that is genuine.

Sometimes photographers, pro and amateur, can run right over the real expression looking for what is expected.   Or we stumble into a scene and alter it to fit what we think should be before we recognize what gem may sit before us.   A quietness in thought and an awareness of your surroundings, your subject, and your expectations are key.

The portraits I have made of my kids are precious to me.  They are emotional reminders of who they are and what they were like as they grew.  Over the years I have worked to bring this quiet sensibility to benefit our clients.  To make each portrait reveal the true personality of my subjects.

P.S. Ry looks dead tired.  He had two weeks left at camp and was having the best time of all the years he has gone.
