Remember when I briefly mentioned a few weeks ago that I was doing an "experimental" lifestyle photoshoot with a fantastic friend of mine?
WELL. GET A LOAD OF THIS.
THIS, is the beautifully strong Christina who allowed me to show off one of her favorite hobbies, achievements, and aspirations: running.
This woman has come a long way in her journey since she started while we were still in college together, and not only could I be any more proud of her, but she is a total inspiration of having a goal and sticking to it.
Dead serious about that. And I highly recommend you follow her instagram (@ artylubear) if you are looking for more motivation in your day, regardless if it involves an exercise.
There are a million different things I can say about my experience and almost to the point where I have a hard time putting it all into words. It was new, it was different, and for the longest time I never thought I would end up trying to do portraits of people.
But here I am now, in absolute love with the concept of something more like a "lifestyle photoshoot" with people, in which the photos capture their passions and variety of ways of celebrating life.
After all, it's always been my goal to help others realize that there's more to life than what's usually presented. And what better way to do that (other than my prints) than capture the moments of people just being themselves?
This is just one of the many photos I took of my dear friend, and I have a few more to share. I hope you like them as much as she and I do, and I think there's a fun new fire waiting to be lit in this potential.
