\/><\/p>\n<p>The etymology (origin of the word &#8217;emotion&#8217;) comes from the following:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\n  From French \u00c3\u00a9motion, from \u00c3\u00a9mouvoir \u00e2\u20ac\u017d(\u00e2\u20ac\u0153excite\u00e2\u20ac\u009d) based on Latin \u00c4\u201cm\u00c5\u008dtus, past participle of \u00c4\u201cmove\u00c5\u008d \u00e2\u20ac\u017d(\u00e2\u20ac\u0153to move out, move away, remove, <strong>stir up, agitate<\/strong>\u00e2\u20ac\u009d), from \u00c4\u201c- \u00e2\u20ac\u017d(\u00e2\u20ac\u0153out\u00e2\u20ac\u009d) (variant of ex-), and move\u00c5\u008d \u00e2\u20ac\u017d(\u00e2\u20ac\u0153<strong>move<\/strong>\u00e2\u20ac\u009d).\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So to me, emotion in a photograph is what stirs up, agitates, or moves us.<\/p>\n<p>If you look at a photograph, it should change your mental state. It should evoke a feeling, a thought, or move you to think in a different way:<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Laughter<\/h2>\n<p>One of the emotions I love is happiness. To me, happiness as an emotion can be manifested in many different ways. A practical way is through laughter.<\/p>\n<p>For example, this is one of my favorite photos: a photo of my grandma laughing:<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_38820\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38820\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"38820\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/love-who-you-photograph-and-photograph-who-you-love\/halmunee-grandma-eric-kim-photography-seoul-0003562-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/halmunee-grandma-eric-kim-photography-seoul-0003562-2.jpg?fit=4928%2C3264&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"4928,3264\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;GR II&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1484219623&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;ERIC KIM PHOTOGRAPHY&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;18.3&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;400&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.025&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"halmunee-grandma-eric kim photography seoul-0003562-2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;My Grandma, Seoul, 2017&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/halmunee-grandma-eric-kim-photography-seoul-0003562-2.jpg?fit=800%2C530&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"size-large wp-image-38820\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/halmunee-grandma-eric-kim-photography-seoul-0003562-2-800x530.jpg?resize=800%2C530\" alt=\"halmunee-grandma-eric kim photography seoul-0003562-2\" width=\"800\" height=\"530\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/halmunee-grandma-eric-kim-photography-seoul-0003562-2.jpg?resize=800%2C530&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/halmunee-grandma-eric-kim-photography-seoul-0003562-2.jpg?resize=768%2C509&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/halmunee-grandma-eric-kim-photography-seoul-0003562-2.jpg?w=2360&amp;ssl=1 2360w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/halmunee-grandma-eric-kim-photography-seoul-0003562-2.jpg?w=3540&amp;ssl=1 3540w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-38820\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">My Grandma, Seoul, 2017<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>How did I get the shot?
