The portrait, the tangible image is not existing yet.
You, a photographer, get to write with light on that canvas.
You get to paint anything you wish onto the surface.
You have the opportunity to tell any story you want to tell.
I want to write with color on that canvas. I want to capture the moments that tell a story and reveal the human spirit. I want to see through God's eyes, but not to capture the darkness or heartache, but the hope and beauty. To show the strength and the joy even amidst tragedy. I want to live passionately. I want to bring color to the black and white, and perhaps outside the lines that have been drawn for me. I will use the eyes and the passions I have been given. I seek not to capture just two-dimensional images, but images that come alive. I seek to preserve the moments that tell stories. I seek not just to touch the heart with my photos, but to stir it to action.
To inspire and be inspired.
