a girl and her camera

my photography has been an outward manifestation of an inward journey. the journey to be seen fresh and anew as the rising sun of each day. glowing in brilliance, with the past behind me, and the excitement of a future unknown. we all long to be seen through the lens of another that won’t judge us, but accept us for the vision and beauty that we possess, right here, right now. with every image, we carry the power to make the ordinary extraordinary, and breathe new life into that which otherwise may be overlooked.


i thank God for the unique opportunity to change the world around me by showing you the world that i see. my vision is an instrument of change, memorializing the precious details in life for all times. just like every image has angles that abound, each different from the rest, so too do people have many sides to them, unique in their own right. may all of our eyes be open enough to also see their beauty.

Busy weekend of New Beginnings

Busy busy weekend - but lots o' fun! First, on 8/8/08 was the wedding of my dear friend Sherri and her fabulous guy Tim. "8" is the number of new beginnings- and I know this is an exciting one for Sherri and her family - so my prayers are with them for an amazing marriage! (Its always fun to "shoot" my good friends). See a sample video above!

Then, the next morning was the family shoot of another dear friend Melissa and her family at Forest Park near Government Hill.

And then later that night was the engagement of Felicia and her fiance Quincy, also at Forest Park near the Planetarium. Their wedding is 9/13/08.

All in all, fun, but busy weekend - I have lots of pictures to review!!

God bless,

Leslie
