Something that I am especially passionate about as a consumer is supporting local artisans. Whether that be chefs, designers, bakers, or makers, it’s important to support the creators in my own community. I love being part of helping people reach their dreams of turning their passions into art.
Something that is also really important to me is archiving my life through beautiful photographs. Moments. Memories. People and places in time that I would love to capture in a bottle and save forever. My photographs are one of my most treasured possessions and will always tell my story.
Sure, everyone has a nice camera these days and can capture some amazing shots. Many of us even know someone with a nice digital camera and a bit of artistic flair. But how long has it been since you had photographs taken by a true artist? A professional photographer is someone that pours their passion and expertise into every shot they take. There is just no comparison to shots taken by a consummate professional.
For almost a decade now, my husband and I have been having a professional portrait shoot done at least once a year. We do them in all seasons in some crazy locations around the city and just try to capture the essence of where we are in that season of life. The photographer that we love to support is Under Grace Photo. http://undergracephoto.com/
I cannot tell you how special each picture Michelle of Under Grace has taken for us has come to be. Somehow she is able to find what is best about our love and capture it on film. She truly is a magician, hiding behind the lens and waiting for moments to happen. And it’s not just us… every single photo I have ever seen her take tells a fairy tale! I feel like I am peering into the heart of each face she captures. These pictures are truly worth the investment to me!
