The Brighter Side of Things

Rachele and I shot together about a month ago. We honestly did not have much of an idea besides what she had seen on my Pinterest and the outfits she had chosen. I met up at her place and we headed to the hills behind her house. I enjoyed spending time with her, getting to know her and photograph her. She brought something new out of me. 
As I was going through the photos afterward, I had a really hard time narrowing it down. There were so many photos that told a story. If there's one thing I have learned in photography it's that it's about telling a story, giving something more than a photograph (Samuel Lippke). These photos tell a story of girl who has come into her own. She's not afraid to be her own person and look past the things that long to hold her back. I hope you enjoy these photos.

Under the Boardwalk

I met up with my gorgeous friend Ashley Ciancanelli for a day in San Clemente. We had spent days prepping photos on Pinterest to assure we could capture exactly what we both wanted. I always enjoy shooting with Ashley because not only is she a good friend, which makes it like a regular day, but she is just so fun and sweet to be around. We had all the guys staring and all the girls glaring.
