Amazing what a bit of exercise can do!

Last year, I realized the need to start exercising on a regular basis.  For Christmas I received the iphone 4s, and started playing around with the camera and various free apps.  The last few weeks have been very inspiring at the beach where we walk, and started to interrupt our walking to capture images.  I then actually spent money on an app {shocking!}, creating fun images and posting them to my Facebook page.

Now you know a little backstory of how this album came about!!!

I have been given the tremendous opportunity to work with  Real Estate Photography by Chad Jones
assisting with set up and capturing details shots.

Here is the first home I assisted on in early February

#2 in 'the human condition' series...

"INNOCENCE"

'JOY'

I have been working on a personal project, I have loosely entitled ' the human condition'.  I was inspired to capture emotion (via subject and light), that which motivated me to learn this art form years ago.  Yet, the more learned, read and studied, the less I seemed to be capturing the emotion, so concerned was I about exposure or composition.  Don't get me wrong, that and MORE is of vital importance!!!

This undefined time limit project, has caused me to go beyond the knowledge and just capture the moment.

I hope you enjoy this process as much as I am!
