I have been wanting to do a personal photography project for a while, it's something that I have always admired but I never had the confidence to say "I can do that" until now.
I talked to my husband about it last night and he told me I would be crazy if I didn't do something like it, but I needed to find a subject matter that was interesting to me regardless of what others wanted to see and if I found it interesting someone else would too.
I thought about that all night. Then I thought about where I live and how much I adore the northwest. It's such a rich, intoxicating, and interesting part of the world. The northwest offers everything from hipsters to mountain men, wine makers to vegans, computer techs to ranchers. How fun would it be to capture and share all the interesting people in the little towns most people just drive through? Everyone has a story and I am dying to share them.
So, my little project is just starting to take flight. I am not entirely sure where it is headed yet but I do know that there are a couple of local galleries I will approach as my portfolio increases. In the mean time, I do need subjects willing to pose and share their story to get the ball moving. So if you have a story to tell please contact me at heatherluann@gmail.com and we will talk.
But most importantly I want to get these stories out there to share with the world. There is no point in telling stories is no one hears them. For the time being they will be on here and my website, but eventually I'd like to get them in their own special place, but until them, please start sharing the project and staying up to date with me here.
As always, I appreciate and love all of my clients, friends and family that have supported me through out my photography journey thus far! Your the best!
xoxo
Heather
