Walker Evans, an American photographer  said "Whether he is an artist or not, the photographer is a joyous sensualist, for the simple reason that the eye traffics in feelings, not in thoughts"

We all take certain liberties when it comes to our work, sometime the artistic licence we have is quite large. Our vision creates our own personal style, and as such every photographer has their own distinct style.
My style is soft and romantic, as it comes to my Boudoir and and my portrait work.  Even in my Automotive work, I always blend colours and use light and shadows to enhance the style of the vehicle.
