From Dark to Light

This shoot showcases the emotions and feelings many of us experience throughout the course of our journey. Many of us put on a "veil" to hide our real emotions in fear of getting hurt when showing vulnerability to others. The Light Within tells a story about pushing through those feelings and finding the foundation from the inside out. 

My goal when creating this series was to capture the raw and real emotions that are often hidden. I chose to tell a story by using my lens to express darkness turning into light. Throughout this series you will find images that expand on feelings I and many of us have experienced but keep hidden in the dark. The images in this series were created by using techniques such as multiple exposures, slow shutter speeds, flash and post processed editing. 

Sunflowers seek the light even when it is cloudy. These three images show the growth of a sunflower from chaos and darkness to breaking through barriers and finding the sunlight. 

This series displays personal experiences and sentiments used to transmute dark clouds into beautiful sunrises through the use of the four elements that unify within.
