Creative Photography starts with connecting!!!

I learned from a very young age that when people want to tell stories of their journey on earth, they look for photographs. This taught me a lot about the power of photographs. These paper thin images have the ability to help someone remember, or recall a feeling or take someone back in time to a far away special place.

I have come to learn that photography is about connecting with people, places and things. This is what fascinates me about photography. I am committed to taking intentional steps to build deeper connections. Building strong connections means that your must also earn your subjects trust. They must believe and feel that you value them and don't take them for granted. Although this is a journey for me continue, I feel very lucky to have had two friends in my studio this past weekend that demonstrated that creative images come from connecting.

Thank you Alexander Baker and Craig Terry for your time in the studio this weekend.
