Photoshoot for Olivia's guitar

And that's where I like to hover with the craft I am constantly working to perfect.  Hoping to catch and freeze the magic of some of those moments of greatness.  I can't recreate the full impact of an amazing performance or athletic feat.  But I can try to capture the essence through glimpses that allow us to stop and appreciate and sit with the performance in ways we can't while it is happening.  The athletic skill of a dancer that allows the movements to appear so effortless.  The split-second timing of an athlete that results in skills that are faster than thought.  The feelings evoked in us by a musician that communicates in ways mere words cannot.

This kind of genius and brilliance exists all the time and all around us - without us always being aware.  It's why I wanted to do this photoshoot with Olivia.  I said it before.  Olivia is already a rockstar.  It is just the rest of us that have to catch up to that fact...
