Life passes by in the blink of an eye. It is so easy to miss the tiny details that make up the existence of the people around us.
My goal with this series was to pause, take a breath, and truly see. Working with these AWP Students and Alumni gave me a factory reset, a moment to reflect on the past, present, and future. And if these young creatives are our future, things are looking up.
Please enjoy a glimpse into the world of Kate Morehouse, Lee Weiss, Noah Maguire, and Sofia Salas, through the lens of moonshine canyon photography.

I've not only made many new best friends, but I've also signed with one of the best talent agencies in Atlanta, Atlanta Models & Talent. The crew who run AWP are just the best. I have gotten many bookings and countless auditions. It's excelled my acting career by so much. Thank you AWP!!!"

To capture a moment in somebody's life on film is one of my greatest joys. To be truly present with another person is a feeling most humans crave and often struggle to find. Thank you to Kate, Lee, Noah, and Sofia for sharing in a moment of connection and creativity with me. Thank you for sharing your heart, your passion, and most importantly, your time. To see each of you evolve is a gift I shall never take for granted!
Go out into the world and be profoundly you, because you are enough!
Follow along on their artistic journeys!

A Free Funded Forex Account is an excellent opportunity for aspiring traders to enter the forex market without risking their own money. Instead of depositing personal funds, traders are provided with trading capital by the funding company after passing an evaluation or demo challenge. This model allows traders to showcase their skills, discipline, and risk management strategies in real market conditions. Profits earned are usually shared between the trader and the funding provider, creating a win–win situation. For beginners and experienced traders alike, a funded account reduces financial risk while offering the chance to trade bigger capital and grow faster.

“Life is in the details…” really resonates with me. Small moments and thoughtful choices often shape the bigger picture of our lives. Paying attention to details not only helps us stay focused but also builds a sense of clarity in everything we do. I recently found Mahadev Book, and it reflects the same idea—how details can make a difference. If you’re curious, you can explore Mahadev Book to see how it emphasizes the value of precision and consistency. Sometimes, it’s these finer aspects that truly bring meaning to our journey.
