⌛️📸 Looking back on 2025, I don’t just see portrait sessions. I see stories. This year shaped my studio in ways I didn’t expect. More depth. More trust. More adventure. More moments that felt real and unforced. More clients that are helping Gray Duck to head in a direction that is exactly where I want to be. I’m so thankful for each of you who trusted me to capture these moments. I’m starting this series with a few personal images. I’m sharing them because they remind me why I photograph the way I do. These aren’t perfect. Not every face is smiling. The light isn’t always ideal. But they are living proof of a moment that existed. When I look back at them, I’m not thinking about settings or technique. I’m grateful I took them. That’s the feeling I hope for in my clients’ photos too. Images that hold emotion, stand the test of time, and quietly say we were here. Over the next few posts, I’ll be sharing work from across the year. Sports, headshots, families, weddings, branding and more. I wanted to start here because this is the lens I try to bring to all of it and the kind of work I’m excited to keep growing into in 2026.
