When you go to take someone's picture, the first thing they say is, what you want me to do? Everyone is very awkward.
Capturing candid moments often reveals genuine reactions that are unfiltered by posing. The initial awkwardness people feel when being photographed stems from uncertainty and self-awareness. This discomfort diminishes as trust builds or as individuals relax with the camera's presence. Embracing this awkwardness can lead to more authentic and heartfelt images, showcasing true personality rather than artificially posed expressions.
