Capturing April: A Look Back Through the Lens

April came and went in a blink, but not without leaving behind quiet stories, unexpected beauty, and fleeting moments that deserved to be paused. As I sift through the images captured in April, I can appreciate all that the month held for me including a trip to the Central California coast, lots of macro, mentoring sessions, a commercial shoot, my Waterfalls & More Workshop, and a trip to Utah. It was a BIG month and I’m still not quite finished with all the editing.

April has always been a month of transition. It carries the last sighs of winter and the first full breaths of spring. Trees begin to remember their leaves. People linger longer outside as the days get longer and warmer. There’s a sense of something beginning, though it hasn’t fully arrived yet. There’s a clear sense of the world waking up around me.

Photography has a way of anchoring time, giving us something to return to long after the feeling has passed. Looking at these images now, I’m reminded of how important it is to slow down and notice. To capture, not just what we see, but what we feel, and to appreciate all that is around us.
