Growth // Gisselle — nini new york.

What I find really beautiful about a person, is how and when they show growth. Whether it's a sense of maturity, or within their craft; seeing someone take steps forward, is always very interesting in the most fulfilling way possible.

For today's post, I'm going to share with you some of my early and some of my most recent work of Gisselle. If you read my "Urban Wanderlust" post, you'll know that back in 2015, I was obsessed with color. I loved experimenting in front of graffiti, and used to edit my images purposefully, so that the saturation levels were high.

Since then, I have opted for a more simple, clean look and focus on other aspects of the model, other than the person's body or face.

The more effort you put into your craft, the more improvements you will see. What I especially love about art, is that it grows as you do. It changes as you do. And I think that's so incredible.

Since 2015, I have grown so much as a person, and as you'll see below, my view of the world is a little different too.

Below is some of my work with the same model, but from two weeks ago.

Lately, I've had a lot of people ask me where I see myself in 5 years. Honestly ... I have no clue. I just hope I am healthy, and that the people I love along the way, are with me. That's the most I can ask for.

But I hope in 5 years, I can say that I have developed my skills even further, and have experimented in more areas in photography.

If you have made it this far into this post, thank you very much. I hope you have enjoyed the content, and that you come back to visit some time soon!
