When Maggie asked me if I’d contribute to her class Photo Connections – about photos and how we connect to those photos I couldn’t say no! It’s no secret that I LOVE photography and it’s not just because of the gorgeous images – it’s the emotion the photos evoke!

Maggie has put together an awesome class for ANY photography level on creating and capturing emotion (and documenting it) through photos. Here’s a cute video she put together for the class.
