52 Portraits : 5/52

I ran down to Missoula for the weekend, and ended up doing an impromptu photoshoot at 3am. #5 came out of that shoot. More proof that you don’t need elaborate plans–just pick up the camera and start shooting.

52 Portraits : 3/52

(Almost) teen spirit. Still working through friends and family before moving on to portraits of strangers. Baby steps. You might recognize Mya from the metal-themed (that became a blue-themed) portrait from last year. She’s a trooper.

52 Portraits : 2/52

Sometimes good light just happens. Part of the goal of this project is to force myself to pay attention to light again. It’s easy to get caught up in being busy, so busy that we miss perfect opportunities for a…

52 Portraits : 1/52
