I take pictures because it makes me happy. If I take a picture of you, I hope it makes you happy. I hope it captures something; a unique piece of your personality, a moment you'll never forget, your beauty - inside and out, or you with someone you love. I used to spend too much time worrying about whether or not my pictures were good. I still struggle with it, at times. For the most part, however, I don't waste my precious time on such things. I love photography, whether I'm good at it or not. I love seeing something I find interesting; an inanimate object, a flower, my cats, a moment, and doing my best to capture it in a way that reflects what I see. It could never happen for all of my pictures, but for at least some of them, I hope you can see what I see.
