I want to congratulate Jeffrey Mims as the new mayor of Dayton. Jeffrey was a teacher in the Dayton school system and then was on the State of Ohio school board. He then was elected a City of Dayton commissioner. One of the things I enjoy most about photographing people is learning about them, and everyone has a story to tell you if you just listen. I’ve been photographing the Mayors of Dayton and the City Commissioners for more than 25 years.
I get asked during most sessions by my subject to tell them what is their best expression. Everyone has a perfect expression. Maybe it’s a big smile, a small smile, no smile. My job is to take a series of photographs and find that perfect expression for each person.
