These photographs were inspired by the stunning lupine fields near Orick in Humboldt County, California. Personal projects allow photographers to stretch themselves, to make work in a space without expectations or limits.
In this project, I was seeking a color harmony. A color harmony is created through using colors that are evenly spaced on the color wheel, for example: orange, green, and purple. What the subjects, the fog, the flowers, and I wound up creating far surpassed what I had originally envisioned.
Thank you to everyone who participated. Each and every one of you shine with such radiance.
This was my first personal project in nearly ten years...

Inspired Always,
~Carrie

Eric - When you mentioned a person project and red heads, I wondered. When you produced this, it all made sense in the most beautiful and creative of ways. Definitely inspiring!

Adie Bazor - Carrie - I can't believe it. Your work continues to astound me every single time! These photographs are simply breathtaking. These young ladies were gorgeous already, but you've taken them to a whole new level. I can't wait to see what you do next! (And I REALLY can't wait until I can DJ a wedding you're photographing again!) SO MUCH LOVE!!! <3 Adie, groundLoop Events

Becca Pierachini - It’s so amazing to see you doing exactly what you love to do, not just photographing for others but for yourself. These remind me of all the art lessons you taught me in high school that I will never forget. You are so inspiring
