When you look at another photographer's work, are you envious or inspired?  Usually people are envious because they think, "Why did't I do that" or "I need to learn more so I CANdo that"!  I follow some simple rules everyday...

Let me through a shout out to a photographer that is inspiring, creative and will make you pay attention to composition in a way you never have before! Go check out on Instagram Iamthesam

Finding complimentary colors that match the outfit is super important.  I love making the scenery an active part of my subject and I always find the composition that works with the expression I'm going for.
