Shoot outside your comfort zone.

When approached with the opportunity to professionally shoot something you've never filmed before -- your first reaction is 'oh hell no, I can't do that' and then your adrenaline kicks in and you say 'why the hell not!'. 

Last year, I was very fortunate to be given the opportunity to shoot for a national Porsche enthusiast magazine called 'Excellence Magazine'. I had never shot a car in my life (insert nervousness here). The shoot was scrappy, thrilling, spontaneous, beautiful and filled with uncertainty. I loved every minute of it.

But what's for certain is the pride that I now have with the final output of my work. Moral of the story -- when given the chance, shoot outside your comfort zone.

Diane & Story

"I just want to capture this moment in time. She is at that magical in between time where she isn't yet grownup and yet not a kid anymore."

So much fun spending time with Diane & Story a few weeks back. Glad I could be a part of this special moment.

Linda.

It makes my heart warm to think about people taking a moment to treat themselves. Linda is one of those rare souls who exudes so much positive energy and happiness that you only hope to capture a quarter of it through the camera lens. She's full of life and laughter and it was so lovely to spend time with her.

Thanks for letting me take a moment to capture your fabulous self, Linda!
