Mario

Around every corner in the Pacific Northwest seems to lie an incredible natural scene. This session was my second on this year’s excursion. Working with model Mario, we ended up deep in a canyon that had suffered horrible fire damage. There was a wonderful connect with Mario’s energy and the location. He comfortably engaged with […]
