One reason I started down the path of photography was for the sheer pleasure of creating something of substance. Through the years my love of portraiture resulted in photographing countless amazing couples, families, and individuals. I can remember each fun memory, instant connection, and candid photograph that built me into the artist that I am today; sometimes however I crave the freedom to create work like this, no guidelines, restrictions or expectations (but my own).
In 2013 I had the pleasure of doing a fine art session with Ashley Young, a model I absolutely love working with. Ashley’s dancer precision and ethereal quality is rich in each photo. I wanted vulnerability, delicate qualities of the female form, and lush texture of earth to collide in a gallery of photographs that captured this essence.
