With deep respect, she happily holds the door open for you, and a tip of the cowboy hat or nod a charming thanks to others profusely when they offer that same politeness.

Portrait + landscape photography are focused areas I'm really interested in. This shoot was purposely done with candid shots in mind as I wanted to capture people's emotions and interaction with their beautiful environment.

You can feel the real relationship of appreciation, awe, and wonder of how a person feels like being enveloped with the majestic beauty of nature..
