When the conditions align just right each February, nature gives us quite the annual showing at one of our nation's most majestic National Parks. This rare event is known as the Yosemite Firefall and to make a long explanation short, the setting sunlight hits horsetail fall in a way that makes it look like lava is falling off the side of the cliff. The event itself is a lot of fun to witness and experience, but spending the evening surrounded by thousands of people all there to witness this singular event is what stands out the most to me. There is just a different energy in the air. Frustrations and anger no longer seem to exist (at least in my experiences) and it feels like a collective gathering of excitement and love channels itself throughout the sea of people. The event itself is amazing to see, but the experience of the entire day will be something that sticks with you for a lifetime.
For someone who hated nature growing up, you could say that the world sat under a veil of shadows for me. Once I was fully exposed to the amazing beauty of our natural planet, I was addicted and photography became a way for me to really showcase just how lucky we are to live here. Using Bierstadt and Kinkade as my inspiration, I grew a style that really focused on the daily battle of light and dark and the many colors the light would reveal.
For this project, my goal was simple: how to take my story and my style and merge it into one collection? I wanted to really show how the once darkened world I knew was finally exposed to the vibrant and colorful natural world that I had missed all those years. The revealing light symbolizes growth and appreciation from the darkness of a younger and more naive mindset. Absolute beauty comes from the masterful blend between light and dark and this collection was made to embody the emotion of that dance and really showcase the vibrance of our planet.
