derek & vanessa (beloved)












hello amazing friends,,,

i'm proud to share a few images from a Beloved session i did earlier in the year.

as many of you know, the Beloved project is the new center of my photographic work, and i look forward to sharing much more with you in the coming months.

i'll actually be discussing the project in the Master Class i'll be teaching at WPPI in las vegas next week, and showcasing for the first time work from my explorations this year to the attendees.

Derek & Vanessa, you two are so beautiful together. i will never forget the free hearts you entrusted me with, they have touched me deeply.

many blessings and much love,

jesh *
