When snapping pictures,say, of anyone or anything you know, you tend to capture a certain moment. A moment in time almost. I enjoy taking pictures of my friends from time to time, capturing them in their most surprising moments or their most hilarious ones as well. I'm not declaring myself as a photographer by any means, I just like taking pictures.
The reason that I used this quote (look above in the subject line)that I found in a fortune cookie, no doubt, is that most of it is true. A photo doesnt capture the charm anyone has. It's you, yourself, that has the charm. A photo, is just that. A photo. A picture. Of some unforgettable night with friends, or of some wonderful day on a beach. When you take a picture of someone, you don't know their story. You don't know their true identity. Or their true charm.
You find someone's charm by talking to them...in person. By conversing with them, enjoying them, discovering who they are. As a person.
A photo doesnt capture your charm...a person does.
