I found this site while searching for the website for UW's MFA program. I'm not certain what the event was, or whether these photos were the product itself, but I'm drawn to the energy in all of them, particularly the one of the gentleman in the orange sweater and the serene eyes. There is both a stillness and a movement in each one, and I'll bet these would work well in a gallery, subtly framed, if at all, and moderately lit. They speak for themselves. Thank you.
