The right professional photographer captures the magic of each person - often the twinkle in their eyes or smile, without distraction, which I love, but I also really do love candids of people. This one to me, shows what I actually look like in person. Hair that is rarely tame, lines on face, and years of sun-drenched skin. I like pointing this out, because my professional photos look better than I actually look (except in soft light)! When so many friends are made on FB, we will often meet in person (finally) and then have quizzical looks. I had one guy say to me, "Wow, you don't look like your pictures!" (and it was not a compliment). And I thought, you're right. And that's OK.
