This challenge proved challenging for me as I don’t usually take photos that are candid, in profile. Over the years I have gotten in the habit of asking people to face the camera at family gatherings or events. I want to be able to see them face on. There is beauty in a photograph where the person is not posing, there can be more “depth” in terms of catching what they are thinking, in a pensive pose, or in joy when they are not aware a camera lens is focused on them. In the future I need to think more about capturing those moments. The photos I was able to find for the profile challenge are of my husband.

Looks like a fun event! It’s often best to take photos when people aren’t aware of the camera.
