My best friend's photos.




Taking photos for Casey is always one of my favorite things to do, because she's my best friend. We already do everything together, so when I'm taking her photos, I'm not just taking them for her. I'm taking them for me. I'm taking photos of the way I want to remember her. I'm not thinking "What is the best shot?" I'm thinking "What's going to be most telling about her? What's going to show her personality, and her unique beauty?" It's not necessarily about the mechanics. It's about what will make her feel the best when she sees them. That's what I love about taking pictures of my best friend. It's a good experience to have, because that's how I think that's how I'll need to look at all of my subjects when taking their portraits.
