create something beautiful

I love Jennifer Squires’ beautiful, simple photos and her devotion to earth-friendly business practices. She has an Etsy store which sells pretty pictures of flowers, food items, and scenic views - most all of them shot using natural light with no fancy computer manipulation necessary to achieve images you’d gladly hang on your wall or place on your desktop. I kind of feel like each photo makes me feel calm and really hope I can achieve such a feeling with my photos in the future. Not only that, but as she states on her website, she makes every stride possible reduce her environmental impact by taking steps such as using using natural lighting as much as possible, using recycled stationary when she must send by snail mail, but making every effort to do her business online instead, using digital image proofs rather than contact sheets and chemicals, etc. Check out her website here to see her advertising portfolio and read about how she strives to save the world with every photograph she takes, and visit her Etsy store, where you can buy photoprints like these:
