One of the things that brings me the greatest joy as a photographer is knowing that people love the photos I take. I so enjoy taking pictures and I'd do it even if no one else wanted them, but it's nice to know that people appreciate them.
I'm very uncomfortable with spoken compliments. Telling me, "I love the photos" makes me squirm a bit, but using them tells me the exact same things. I took tons of pictures during my brother's junior and senior year on his baseball team and shared them with the team through Shutterfly Share. Some of those photos have been put on photo boards at graduations and one mom this year told me that she made a photo book of her son from the pictures I took. When people put my photos as their screensavers and profile pictures, it makes me glad because you only do that to photos you like. On the wall of my friend's home, almost all the photos are ones I took of her kids. I don't want this to sound boastful or prideful, but this is part of why I do this job. I want to help people preserve their memories in a tangible way that they will love looking back upon. Seeing people sharing these photos tells me that I'm succeeding in my goal and that makes me happy. Nothing makes me happier than making other people happy. Happy Friday, everyone! I hope you have a great weekend. We have graduation parties for my brother this weekend. What do you have going on?
