I photographed a wedding a few weeks ago where they hired a skilled roller of some exquisite cigars from Boston Cigar Factory
There is something about photographing people who work with their hands that delights me to no end. They are focused, dedicated to their work, and serious about their craft.
Craft…
That is a word that carries a lot of weight, as does craftsman (meaning that in a gender neutral way). To me, it implies a higher calling. Something that one was meant to do, perhaps was even made for. When skilled hands join with the right tools… Magic happens.
This woman was certainly skilled at her craft, and I definitely enjoyed not only partaking in one of those cigars, but in watching her work. I could have sat there for hours, completely entranced.
