The most valuable piece of knowledge that I absorbed from the Sandy Puc/Jerry Ghionis class was to capture emotion, not images. A whole new fire has been lit in me and I intend on using this inspiration to produce amazing images of people for their loved ones to cherish. Photographs that show a person's personality and expression of emotion record a moment from the person's life and keep it for all time, even after they are gone. The above series of my husband shows a side of him that few see....his silly side! They are my favorite images I have of him. If you ask someone who lost all their possessions in a house fire what they miss the most, chances are they would respond, "my photographs". When you are choosing a photographer, keep in mind what these images will be worth to you someday. Quality may cost more now, but wouldn't that be expected for something that grows in value and eventually becomes priceless?
