note: in my later years I hope to be living here, the place I call home and doing something I love. Whether that is teaching, writing or a love I haven't discovered yet. Just living each day at a time, who knows what will come.

Photography has always been a part of Morgan's(17) life, and ever since I (Kaysi,14) met her, i got hooked. It has been a way for us to express our deepest secrets, and greatest emotions. But we only started off doing pretty portraits and cute candids. Now as we are growing, we are realizing how much more photography can be




My plan:
who: me 
what: conceptual photography with words use different things to write words
where: Oregon
when: spring break

This style of photography is interesting to me because I really enjoy conceptual photos and portraying an idea or story through photos. I plan on photographing people and paper with words on it over spring break outside and inside. I hope to find new ways to show stories and words. I want to photograph people with words in their hands in different locations with different meanings.

“Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What 

you have caught on film is captured forever… It remembers 

little things, long after you have forgotten everything.” –
