“I was inspired by the idea of finding beauty in winter, especially since it can be a tough season for many,” Jen Shepherd says. “To me, the photo represents the beauty and strength found in community and friendship, much like the way connections can help people navigate through difficult times. I’m drawn to photography because it lets me find beauty in everyday moments that might otherwise go unnoticed. It helps me stay in the present and see the world in a new light. Plus, there’s always something to learn, and I love that challenge. Photography is a blend of art and technique, which creates so much variety.”
