As a photographer, sometimes you need to work on things outside of your normal day-to-day life 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 creating images and we call it 52 Weeks of Awesomeness (52WoA)!

Here are our Week 50 – “What do you do for fun?” images!

20141007_Kansas_005 We taught our Introduction to Portrait Photography Class and it was awesome! We had a TON of fun with all of the attendees and just spending time together as a team!

Here are our Week 51 – “Autumn” images!

20141007_Autumn_010CHRIS: Because it is AUTUMN.

141014_autumn_002SARAH: There is something magical about a fall sunset.

AUT_9853AUTUMN: IT’S MY FAVORITE SEASON! and not just because it’s my name…. but maybe kind of. also it’s just the best.

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, ipad, 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 and/or instagram 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.

Week 52, “Self Portrait” is due Tuesday, October 21st!
