When we met with Victor for his portrait session Jake asked him what occasion was prompting him to get his photos taken. He said there was no occasion, “I just thought I might want some nice photos of myself someday.” It was nice to hear that. Even though most of our clients want their photos to help them remember a special day or to celebrate an accomplishment, photography for photography’s sake might be the best reason of all (at least from the perspective of a photographer). It’s true that you never know when you might need a nice photo. Maybe someday that selfy you used for your profile photo just won’t cut it. Or maybe you’ll need something more professional for a job application. Besides, photo shoots are fun - They’re pretty much guaranteed to make you smile 😉
