Repayment

                     Hello there people of earth and beyond, I'm sorry I have not been posting as often as I would like but I am again present! I recently went on an lens opening trip to check out colleges and the amazing cities of Seattle and Portland, quite a trip and I got to take some amazing photos! So, sit back, keep your arms and legs within reaching distance of your computer and enjoy the view! Thanks! A.Z.

Shining Light on the Subject

I have needed a little clarity lately, dusting away a few things I would have rather kept buried but it turned out shining the light on the subject was exactly what I needed. Bringing the light to the things that hide in the shadows is a new curiosity of mine...

Down By The River

       I am constantly noticing textures now, wanting to capture the way everything has a different feel to it. Both a blessing and a curse of photography is that the audience cannot always hear and feel the pictures, but he blessing of it it is, that some can, and I intend to meet those who can, and teach those who can't.

Soles

As I part time dancer and full time photographer, I got the chance to combine two of my passions and found a whole new art. Observing these lovely girls dancing was amazing, though it was really stunning to see their pointed toes and strong supporting ankles. A bunch of pictures of feet may seem odd but these ballerinas had such technique I wanted to capture their strength in the soles of their shoes. ...   -A.Z.

 There is this one tree that I've grown up with and in every type of weather, it continues to amaze me with its detail.  -A.Z.

Back To My Roots

A shoot done at my roots up in the mountains. I always miss it but looking back at it now I notice that there is so much that I never fully took in. The little details one starts to notice as a photographer, or perhaps just a growing being.

 A different perspective...

Rainy Day

I have to say one of my favorite things to shoot lately is water, it's both beautiful and difficult to capture...

Zen

A new shoot in the rain based on peace and serenity, remember to forget all the stress in your life and take a moment to observe.
