Photoshoot and Beyond
Aesthetic is defined as being concerned with or the appreciation of beauty. It also suggests a style or underlying principles that guide an artist or an artistic movement.

Humans were never meant to sit around all day. Our structure is made for walking. When I injured my right knee a couple of summers ago, I emerged from the ordeal with a perpetually stiff knee that makes creepy creaking noises when I go down stairs. The bum knee has also changed my body mechanics […]
