    • Abstract:
      This article explains that expressing emotion through body language and gestures is an effective way to communicate with people. It also explains that this method of communication is only effective if a person's physical reaction to something is genuine, and not staged. Freelance photographer Jim Summaria describes his experiences photographing two speakers at a business conference in Barrington, Illinois. Summaria talks about the physical responses conveyed in these pictures, and the way they communicate character traits in each of the speakers. He also discusses taking pictures of three unaware truck drivers, to further demonstrate the effective communication of genuine emotional response.
