I knew my brother, photographer Charles Saadiq of introvert images, had skills with the camera, but it really hit home when he shot some of my family members during my most recent family reunion in Michigan. While his wife and I were chatting, Charles busied himself with guerrilla-style photography during the family picnic with his beautiful camera. While it seemed that he was just shooting quick snippets here and there, it became evident that he was capturing stories within fragments of angles. Not only did he take some amazing shots of the subtle nuances of my family members’ interactions, but he shot them in a way that made me see them in a different light, most especially so with this picture of my Uncle Jimmy. My uncle suddenly went form a wise-cracking, sometimes fiery character to a soulful, solemn work of art. I was speechless.
Please be sure to see more of Charles’ shots here at his Flickr stream. A big thanks to my bro for adding so much dignity and beauty to my family event!
I’m in constant motion as I bow down to Brother Charles for this stunningly beautiful photograph.
I too am speechless. Thanks for sharing.
Wow! Amazing photograph. Your brother is very talented. Thanks for sharing his photography here!
