Look for the Light

The one thing I’ve learned while taking all these pictures is I want light in my subject’s eyes. I’ll turn them in circles until I see what I want. Christian knows exactly what I’m up to when I start this business. He knows that tilting that head ever so slightly up can make a huge difference. Unfortunately, sometimes he thinks I want him to look directly at the light source, which results in pictures of him looking like he’s about to come up with an idea or he’s airplane watching. It may not be ideal, but those eyes are full of light and that makes me happy. Can you see the difference?
