“I work one-on-one with new and small nonprofit leaders to help them get their organizations on track to success. An important part of this new venture is building a community of nonprofit leaders who feel ignored and alone in their mission to positively impact the world.” – Kelsey Bradley

Entrepreneurs, artists and creative types: we are people who have a craft and love to use it. Communicating your craft, however, can be quite a challenge.  Most creative types spend their time on developing and focusing their skill, not selling it.  Want to see an artist crumble under pressure? Just ask them to show you their process.

Audrey is a fascinating, incredibly caring and talented person, and I was so lucky to become friends with her at Skidmore, and we ended up living together our senior year. I wanted to interview Audrey for this project because I knew, even though we became very close senior year, I had not heard all of her stories and she had a unique upbringing and outlook on life.

As part of my photography series I have been interviewing some of my friends about some of the crux moments in their lives. A moment in which an event or a realization occurs, and you can’t go back to the person you were the day before. Skylar and Anna shared a really beautiful moment of their’s with me, and I re-interpreted it into this scene and stuck myself into it! To show you a bit of the process, I thought I’d include the shots I took while setting up the scene.
