Emotion photos are always fun to take because you are capturing a moment and freezing it forever, that’s really rewarding to me. I am happy with both of these pictures because I honestly feel like I captured each person’s personality and did not stop shooting until I got what I needed. They may not be perfect, but nothing I take is and that’s ok. Looking forward, I want to learn to capture emotion while also conveying a really technically solid and layered photo, something I was amazed by in Jordan’s portfolio.
