" I guess every girl goes through a photography phase. You know, like horses... taking dumb pictures of your feet... "

Candid photography is best described as un-posed and unplanned, immediate and unobtrusive. It focuses on spontaneity rather than technique, on the immersion of a camera within events rather than focusing on setting up a staged situation or on preparing a lengthy camera setup. Candid photography catches moments of life from immersion in it.

The events documented are often private, they involve people in close relation to something they do, or they involve people's relation to each other. Almost all successful photographers in the field of candid photography master the art of making people relax and feel at ease around the camera, they master the art of blending in, of finding acceptance despite an obvious intrusive element - the camera.
