At the Pow Wow
This is the second year I have photographed this woman at the pow wow. I love her simple garb and her flowing hair.
Dancer in Lavender
At the pow wow today, I photographed this girl as she was lining up for the fancy shawl dance, talking and laughing with her friends.
A Quiet Moment
At the San Manuel Pow Wow today, I saw this boy in a quiet moment, and captured it. I liked the thoughtful look on his face.
The Dancer
Young dancer Tyrese was just beginning his dance by the creek.
The Jump
Tyrese was dancing, ribbons flowing, and finally jumped into the air. In this shot both feet were off the ground--a fast shutter speed was needed to capture the moment.
