To me, a picture without expression is a picture without meaning.\u00a0 Think about it.\u00a0 If you have a picture with some people in it and they have no real expressions, how do you connect with the people and, therefore, how do you discern the picture’s meaning – to them and to you?\u00a0 Life is made up of connections, and pictures without expressions make that just about impossible.<\/p>\n

The picture below is from the “first look” at Melissa and Phil’s wedding<\/a>.\u00a0 The reason I like this picture is, well, obviously, the expressions.\u00a0 There’s no mistaking Phil’s nervous anticipation at seeing Melissa in her dress for the first time, and there’s no doubt about Melissa’s excitement – her facial expression and body language speak volumes.<\/p>\n
