Even when I’m not getting paid to shoot, it seems like I’m still shooting. It’s like the camera is my bridge to society. It allows me to interact with everyone else in the world. Take this bowling night that the wife and I participated in, for example. I couldn’t resist documenting it with my camera.
Sure, I didn’t go all out, bringing the strobes, soft boxes and assistants with me. However, I still wound up snapping the night away… using the camera as an excuse to wind in and out of conversations and little pockets of laughter here and there. Maybe I need my camera so I can be normal?!?
