When I was young, it was a family tradition for my parents to take my sisters and I to the famous Stone Arch Bridge in downtown Minneapolis to watch the "Red, White, and Boom" fireworks light up the sky each fourth of July night. I remember sitting in my little lawn chair being absolutely overwhelmed by the sights that surrounded me; the colorful fireworks, the beautiful skyline shining like the Emerald City in Oz, all the while everything being mirrored onto the mighty Mississippi river below. This swarm of color, light, and reflections was astonishing, wonderful, and perfect. I remember never wanting to forget what I was seeing. I wanted to remember.
Our world is beautiful, and ever since I was a young boy I have felt an urgent pull to capture beautiful moments in time; to rescue them from the oblivion of forgotten memories. To save them forever so that they could be enjoyed by many.
Enter photography. Photography allows for us to freeze moments in time and share them with others; to allow other to take part in our memories. That is an absolutely beautiful thing to me! That is the purpose of this blog, for me to share moments which I have captured with you. Thank you for coming on this journey with me! -Wyatt
