Faces of MS: Paula

without comments

Had a great shoot today for my Faces Of MS project which portrays people that live with
MS but refuse to stop moving. Paula is such a nice person and it is a true humbling
experience working with such wonderful people who are dealing with MS and still continue
to give. I’m blessed to be able to do what I do. Thank you Paula again for being a wonderful
person to photograph.

I guess this guy doesn’t care what others think. Maybe if you adopt it to your photography you’ll experience much more freedom.
