A word on portraiture

 Photographing people has become one of my favorite things. You can definitely get a lot out of a stranger, and it's always fun to catch people candid. Something I've learned is the importance and greatness, for lack of a better word, of knowing or getting to know a subject (even a stranger).  

Photographs tell a story. Portraits, in my opinion, definitely share a life, even if sometimes people are making up the story as they observe and interpret an image, they've recognized something in that image that opened their eyes.
