portrait / Autumn Smiles
I am always fascinated by the color of leaves in autumn. Maybe it is because I grew up in a place where there is constant sunshine and the leaves do not change. I wanted to take advantage of the natural light outside for these photos, so I was ecstatic that the background of my photos could be these stunning trees. The model, my boyfriend, always has a hard time taking photos. He tends to not smile, is awkward around the camera, and is not confident in himself. I wanted to make him feel comfortable and not be scared of taking photos. Not only do we have nice photos now, but cherished memories to go along with them.

independent / The Little Things
The goal in these photos were to find beauty in the mundane, daily life. To find beauty in the harsh reality by zooming into their lives. I am also fascinated by hands because they are so expressive and each one tells a story. I was interested in working with the macro settings of my camera and playing around with angles, light, and composition to make normally mundane subjects interesting.

landscape / Mood Swings
These photos were taken in different locations with such different moods. Each location brought up a different emotion to me: from awe to eerie to reminiscing. These locations ranged from the highways of SE Washington to Lewiston, Idaho.
