So you think you're ordinary...think again!
In our culture, we’re always striving for the extraordinary or trying to be extraordinary. However, if we stop to notice, the extraordinary actually comes from the ordinary. Every single day, there are extraordinary moments.What I love to do as a photographer is wait for those extraordinary moments to unfold in my photoshoots. I usually have around 2 hours of shooting time with a client, but in those 2 hours, there are so many magical moments, I can’t keep up with them all. In every genuine laughter, movement, and pose, there is always one crucial moment when YOU are extraordinary.It is my job as a photographer to wait for the right moment to click the shutter. It’s about seeking out the extraordinary within an ordinary moment and believing that it does it exist. So believe in yourself, and believe in your own ability to be extraordinary.Also, learn to embrace the ordinary because here’s the SUPER SECRET:What is ordinary to you might be extraordinary to others. So just stay true to yourself. Don’t mask who you are and be what you’re not. You’re all different, and you’re all extraordinary in different ways, and it is my absolutely joy to capture the uniqueness of you and celebrate who you are through photos.Below is a photo session I did for an extraordinary young lady, who is also a fantastic photographer herself. I’m so glad I got to know her though the mission trip we did together. She going off to college in a few months for photography, and I can’t wait to see everything God has in store for her bright future.
