Details: The subtle touch of hand to cheek, the overpowering emotion behind a passionate embrace, a playful spark in a woman’s eye while gazing upon her beloved. The displays of affection are as varied as the ways to photograph the sentiment.
As photographers, we can capture the physical world around us, but we can also capture the intangible: a concept, an emotion, a state of mind. How would you portray affection through the lens? Is it a scene of fond interaction, an expression of devotion, a symbolic interpretation, or is it one of your own objects of affection, photographed with love? Where do you find delight, what makes your mouth water, who brings you joy? Is it a person, pet, cherished possession, food you savor, favorite place, personal passion?
Photographs have long been objects of affection, from the crumpled snapshot kept in a soldier’s breast pocket, to the family portrait hung above the fireplace with pride. Can your photographs capture an object of affection, the essence of affection, and inspire affection in the stranger who looks upon them?
