I will be posting my poetry and things that inspire me and my photography. I have always loved to write and it is my belief that writing has helped me grow as an artist. Writing has helped me figure out my thoughts and cleared my head so that I can go out and be creative with my camera. It will be fun to share my thoughts on my creative process with the people who follow me and my work. I would love to believe that I could inspire someone in the process to follow their creative dreams.
This is a poem that I wrote when I was just starting to take photographs and expresses how much power and joy I was feeling as I started on this creative journey.
My angle on existence
The sparks that ignite the passions in the flash
Zoom in on the dreams that float in my head
Alone with the power to capture the heart
My smile and life in a single photograph
The world and opinions settle in my hands
See the emotions laid out in the frame
Freeze a tear or move a beautiful laugh
My smile and life in a single photograph
It’s my concept, the ideas and the emotions
Roaming around and that breathe in my mind
If only for a few moments, a minute or a half
My smile and life is portrayed in a photograph.
A good snapshot stops a moment from running away. ~Eudora Welty
