The kid is a chip
The kid is doing her senior project. She has started her own photo business. Today she got back some pictures she took for a parent of a classmate. She began this project because she keeps being asked to do portraiture and has been paid many times already for doing it. The shots I saw today were truly astounding. I am a lousy portrait photographer but I know a good shot when I see it and most of hers were excellent. Some parents are not objective about their kids and I have suffered many times in many ways for being "Too objective". I wouldn't say this if it were not true. She takes amazing pictures of people and she keeps getting better. It is an art and a skill that not everyone has and it seems she has it in spades. Maybe she will put herself through school using her photography. Now wouldn't that be a kick. I went to photography school to show her that going to college is what you do once you graduate high school. I had hoped to pay for her school with MY photography. I didn't even imagine it was contageous! HA!
