Finding a photo that truly inspires you is normally a hard thing to forcome. Searching through pages of glossy, advertised ridden magazines and internet sites recording every trend or catwalk history moment leaves little to the imagination. But it's the small surprises that leave the impact. Like finding change in a long-fogotten pair of jeans or realising the girl next door could really be your inspiration...
Welcome Emily Grace Patton
At first when in the small suburbia in Gaithersburg, Maryalnd she seemed no different to all the other neighbours that would run around bare foot or jump fully clothed into a green swimming pool. It was when a black shutter hang round her neck, the awkwardness and child disappeared.
Her talent didn't materialise for sometime, sure she could take a good photograph but then so could so many. A photoshoot in the snow where we jumped about and laughed highlighted her capturing gift. In one shot the moment was saved, the emotion conveyed from face to screen... amazing.
Now through time her skills have prospered and now has said to "leave her awkward stage" thanking the symbollic Jesus is in her life.
She'll welcome any rainfall or sunshine or family member and friends to practice her artistic love with a open of a shutter and an exchange of a film. As of yet there is no price to her work but in the future any expense could not afford the inspiration she creates. Its hard to discover an influence who has ventured their life much-less yet knows where her path will take her. This is truly admirable.
