Obadiah is a portrait photographer. He keeps his eye peeled at all times for interesting creatures to take pictures of.

He invites his subjects to visit his studio and discuss ideas for the shoot.A big part of the job of being a photographer is making the subject feel comfortable in front of the camera.Obadiah works hard to create an easy going atmosphere in the studio.

Once the pictures are taken,he makes negatives in the darkroom. Then he must examine all the images and choose the very best ones to print.

The final photo should evoke the personality and inner spirit of the creature being photographed. We see here how well Obadiah attains this ideal.
