52 WoA: Week 16 - Emotion

Typically, on Thursdays, we feature our latest images from our 52 Weeks of Awesomeness photography project. This week has been a very very special week for La Brisa. Well, really, this has been an absolutely incredible week for our very own b. On Monday, b's husband returned home from a year long deployment. I cannot even begin to imagine the faith, trust and strength of a marriage that can endure such a challenge, but all I know is that I have a profound admiration and respect for them. This week’s topic for 52 Weeks of Awesomeness was emotion and I could not think of any other way of honoring the topic then to feature images from b and her husband’s incredible homecoming!

We asked our awesome friend and ridiculously amazing photographer, Cathy Mores Photography, to help immortalize the moments forever. You can see a few of her images below and even more on her blog here - "A Happy Homecoming." The most beautiful aspect of Cathy's emotional images is how she tells such a captivating story.








As a photographer, sometime you need to work on things outside of your normal purview and this project is going to help us (and you) challenge, grow and creatively develop your photography as a whole. Weekly for the next year, we will be sharing our images with you here!

For those of you interested in participating, PLEASE join us! The more the merrier! You definitely do not need to be a professional photographer, this is something you can easily do with your point and shoot, cell phone, ipad2, etc. You can comment with a link to your image here on our blog or on our La Brisa fan page or you can tag La Brisa Photography in your image on your own FB page or use the hashtag #52WoA on twitter that way we can share your efforts with everyone else! If you are interested in joining our La Brisa Aspiring Photographer Workshop group on FB, please request to join as we will also be sharing our images there too.

Next Thursday, November 17th, Week 17: “Lines” will be due. The image must be created between today and November 17th. Good luck!
