These photos New York Times bestselling author Clint Smith so feel so relaxed and easy. At the time of these photos - the amazing How the Word Is Passed had not been released but we absolutely spent some time talking about Clint’s other offerings and I had him recite some poetry for me during the session and those are some of my very favorite images. It is such a gift to be able to photograph people as they chase their dreams or realize their full potential. If you’ve not yet read How the Word Is Passed - consider this my endorsement and me pushing you to do so now!
