Would it surprise you to learn that your favourite musician can perform more than one style of music? What if they told you that they can play several different instruments? Would that impress you or would you think any less of their music if you found out that they can also write or paint?
Some photographers aren’t comfortable with people and others don’t have the patience to photograph a can of soup, much less, children. I happen to thrive on both sides of the Business vs. Personal divide. In fact, I find that they each make me a better photographer on both sides.
I’m focused on you the client/customer and your need, and if I don’t think that I can deliver the results you require, I’ll let you know.
So, the first question you need to answer is whether your photographs are going to be shared with family and friends or used for commercial purposes to sell goods, services or yourself.
