Over the years I've found that my best shoots have had an element of client connection that rested at the bottom of my great experiences during the shoot. That connection seemed to shadow my time and effort as I edited the images from the shoot and constructed the coffee table product with the huge graphic wrap around cover. There seemed to be a subtle commitment, at a personal level, to do work that my client would appreciate at a deeper level. Over the years I've found that my steady customers not only returned to me year after year, family event after family event, but they also seemed to convey their trusting and respectful relationship with me to the the people they recommended me to. Sometimes the people they referred to me seemed to be familiar in an interesting and pleasant way; almost as if we'd been old friends. I suspect that my long time customers had been successful in conveying their trust and respect for me and my photographic work to them.
