Just look at these young people, shining like stars in the galaxy. They have come so far and will grow so much in the next few years. They are at the edge of an adventure that, God willing, will take them through their retirement RV touring years. I love their fresh spirit, their soul-searching, and their breaking free of childhood fears.
God put a love in my heart a long time ago for teenagers. I worked with Young Life during college and later a youth group at church before my own kids multiplied and called me home. I am blessed to spend time with high schoolers while I photograph them. Looking into their eyes and cajoling them to turn this way and that, their character and light pours out and colors the digital media that becomes a portrait.
