who are you?

ever wonder? ever stop and think?
What is it that moves you, that makes you smile,

What defines you?

as my life turns down different paths, sometimes coming full circle and sometimes leading me down new ventures I am constantly exploring all the amazing things and people which surround me. With this I turn to my art to help me see more clearly, hear the sounds I may have missed, connect with the people I may have been hesitant to approach and learn from.

New ventures are always making their way into my life. When something sparks my interest I find myself looking to photograph, to explore, to learn, to make my voice heard or to create a voice for another.

Connections between people have always intruiged me, what attracts two souls and what makes them hold on. The joy, the difficulties. A family, a couple dreaming and struggling to create a family of their own, two souls committing for life, two souls contemplating it. The stumbles, the hopes and dreams, ...
I think as lives get chaotic we forget to step away and remind ourselves what it is that grounds us. And then connect again...

Although my main photography work remains of children I will be working on a new type of portrait collections. No, not weddings but rather couple sessions. For whatever reason...
I have a few couples in mind who will be "coming along for the ride" in the next few months as I explore this. Would love to hear any thoughts and ideas about this. Will promise to share as I move forward.

kind regards,
Heather
