it was a few weeks before this shoot occurred that i began to become more involved with my search for agency models and other professionals in the fashion business. i truly believe that my more proactive approach to forwarding my photographic adventures led me to jessica, a beautiful eurasian model signed to an agency in the city. i have so much love for those who have supported me along the way. it has been such a surprise throughout the years to come across people who truly believe in me and the work i produce and hope to continue to produce. it is because of this support that i muster enough confidence to trust in myself, to trust in my ability to do whatever i put my mind to. i believe self-confidence was the push i needed. before long, i found myself coordinating my largest shoot to date, complete with an agency-signed model, a wardrobe stylist, and a hair stylist, who doubled as a behind-the-scenes photographer (and whose photos can be viewed on my facebook page). i'd like to believe that this is only the beginning of many shoots i hope to coordinate with other agency-signed and freelance models, wardrobe and hair stylists, and makeup artists, yet i shall never forget the knowledge i gained and the joy i received whilst shooting my friends... just to create, just to experience, and just because. that's why i hope to never stop being able to photograph the beauty of people - real, everyday people. i am looking at college as an opportunity to further prove to me why photography is one of the greatest loves of my life.
