hmmm, i dunno. does being in love help your photography skills, because i'm definitely in love but i'm kind of crappy with the camera.

I took a few shots yesterday.
My husband said, "Oh, so did you make a bunch of new beautiful photos for your collection"?
"Nope". ...he just started laughing.
I took them but they were not so beautiful, so I ditched them.

Maybe it's a moment-by-moment love thing...? I'll try again later.

Maybe it's about being in love with some thing, not just some one - in love with photography?

Being in love helps in all sorts of ways... but maybe not with photography...

hmmm...I don't know. maybe. at the very least you must be in love with life to take the time and have the desire to capture it through a tiny viewfinder. :)

lol at down and out chic...feel the same way! i think i would be a worse photographer if i wasn't in love...is that even a sentence?

Hmmm ... this could be true.. It is like a muse I suppose. Even when you are not in love, you are possibly affected by it! I for one am a hopeless romantic... which totally inspires me, but at the same time... I can just photograph out of a passion for the subject!

i'm going to vote... true!

even if it's not i'd like to believe it.

I think they might have meant "love" in an all-encompassing way, as in there must be something in your life that you are in love with, even if you don't have a significant other. There's still your friends, family, pets, hobbies, etc. it's an interesting thought!

in love with life, perhaps? ♥
