funny story -



a funny story-

i was explaining to beverly and jason why photographers use reflectors and how it masks shadows that don't usually provide the nicest appearance on peoples' faces, especially on a super sunny day where the sun's light is nothing but harsh. so i used jermaine (their youngest son) as an example. i carefully placed the reflector on the ground away from the camera's point of view moving it back and forth...

"see how the shadows just go away and provides a rounder form of light? see?" i said.

but while i was talking and moving the reflector back and forth to show the before and after, jermaine was having a difficult time giving us a straight face since the light was in his eyes. it was SOOO cute and FUNNY, i had to take a shot.
