I've never been so shy in the process making photographs as I am now. When I worked for the papers it seemed as if the press badge gave me a license to put people at ease in front of my lens. I'm relearning the process. I had it down, not anymore. I suppose this is a good thing. Processes change with time and experience.
In photography, like most things, one is constantly training. "Fake it 'till you make it" never resonated in this field for me.
