Sweet Rontia
Isn’t Rontia adorable? We connected because our names are almost exact anagrams of each other – how cool! I love her smile and fun sense of style. She chose this outfit for picture day – pretty chic for an eight year-old!
Hear No Evil, See No Evil, Speak No Evil
Some of my goals for the New Year. Are you ready for 2012? I say bring it on!!!
Brenden
I got together with Brenden a few weeks ago to shoot his senior portraits. Brenden grew up in the Montavilla neighborhood, so that’s where we headed. It was a sunny and crisp fall day, and I had such a great time getting to know Brenden even more. He’s applying to architecture programs, plays soccer and is part of an Irish dance troupe. Seriously, what an awesome teenager!
Hungry and Foolish
“Stay hungry. Stay foolish.”
~ Steve Jobs
Have you seen Steve Jobs’ Stanford University commencement speech? If you haven’t, watch it. Now.
In Memory
“Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me. Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful – that’s what matters to me.”
~ Steve Jobs
Walk into any school in a low-income neighborhood and you can see Apple’s amazing impact. Steve Jobs made sure that everyone has access to computer technology – and all the information and inspiration and connection that comes with it. You can find out more about Apple Grants here.
I finally landed an internship at a commercial photography studio, Polara. The creativity, energy, and level of teamwork and quality at Polara is incredible. Yesterday, a shoot was staged in honor of what has always been a beautifully designed product that has so significantly impacted all our lives. See Jeremy Dunham’s striking photos and read Michael Shay’s tribute to the man, the machine and a child’s sense of curiosity here.

“Anytime you get emotion in an image, people are drawn to it.”
~ Seth Resnick
I got to hear Seth Resnick speak last week, and I am beyond inspired. Seth is a master technician, and I love his philosophy towards photography as both an art and a business. Check out his colorful, graphic work here.

“A portrait is not made in the camera but on either side of it.”
