cherish : mary lynn : denver photographer

Meet Mary Lynn. She is an extraordinary woman. I've photographed Mary Lynn many times in the last year with the dance company Fresh Blood Collective. This was a special portrait because it was Mary Lynn alone. We met many times to discuss what this portrait would be, what she wanted and what we could create together. As mothers we spent a lot of time discussing the many hats we wear as mothers, creatives, wives, friends and more. More often than not mothers don't take time for themselves let alone have their own portrait taken. Mary Lynn dreamed up her many characters, aliases and artists, and we adventured through the South Platte River neighborhood with these women. These amazing women; each with their own story, dreams and personalities. This portrait was designed to honor each of these sides of Mary Lynn.

This was a very special portrait for me. One of a woman who I greatly admire and respect.  I'm honored to know Mary Lynn and these other women who dance in her mind and heart. 

Love and Light,

Heather

You & Me : Tara's House

This weekend some dear friends of mine are performing a very special show in Reno, Nevada. It's called You & Me and is the brainchild of Tara Rynders. She began this show in Denver, with a collection of artists and a dream to create an intimate performance in the most personal of spaces, her home. I was luck to be a part of this show and participate in it from the beginning.

We took the show on the road for this first time earlier this year in San Francisco and now she's continuing the journey in Reno. For those of you who are local to the area, you don't want to miss this this. I wish there but alas life takes over sometimes and I have other projects in the works. I hope to make some magic with these lovelies very soon.

For more information on You & Me Reno, please visit Tara's Website.

Until we meet again my beautiful friends. Keep spinning your magic.

Love and Light,
