Two boys. Two cats. A dog. Two guitars. And Kung Fu. | Rochester NY Family Photographer
December 31, 2008Scene One: Dear Tammy. I found your blog and love your work. I’d like you to photograph my son and I.
Scene Two: Enter Tammy. Father & Son laugh nervously. You want what?
Scene Three: Father issues world’s best quote to Tammy: “I can’t believe I’m paying you for this”
Hahahaa. I’m still laughing over that comment. Jeff and his son C. were amazing in front of the camera. It’s not easy sometimes being photographed by me — I’m the first to admit it — because I play off many things while I’m shooting — environment, interactions between people, pets, light, color. I ask you to do things that you think are weird.
Mostly you like the images later. ::grin::
So much fun shooting these two — the images are amazing and we got a wild RANGE of types of images — so I’m happy. I work best when the people who PAY ME (nod to Jeff ::grin::) also are willing to deviate from their original ideas and let me just play. That’s when it’s fun.
So thanks guys!

Isn’t this the honest truth.
