I once read that "photogenic" is nothing more or less than a measure of the soul's aperture. Children are so photogenic (and so vulnerable) because theirs is open wide. The difference between a photogenic adult and one who is not, is a difference of consent. You cannot "take" a beautiful picture of someone, it must be given, like in this picture of my aunt and her granddaughter. My aunt will be the first to tell you she “does not like her picture taken” but here, it is undeniable that she is allowing me to capture her beautiful moment.
Mike is also allowing me to be a part of his special “Kian and daddy time”
