The Invisible Children movement is an amazing organization striving to create global awareness of the war in Northern Uganda and to help the children and people of Uganda affected by it. The founders are a group of young artists and filmmakers who are inspiring change with their films and efforts to bring piece to Uganda. Here in Apple valley at Granite Hills High School a group of students has decided to take part in this effort by starting a club in support. They are doing many different things to raise money for the Invisible Children movement including a bracelet campaign and t-shirts to spread the word. My good friend Morgan Taylor who is a very talented photographer has been volunteering his time helping out and decided to do a photo shoot with the kids in the club and asked if I would like to join. Of course I did! The shoot will be made into posters and photos for the club’s blog. The theme was a journey and was set in the jungles of the High Desert ;) I hope you like it!
Some of the bracelets the kids have made to raise money.
This is one of my favorites from the day, isn’t she adorable??
I love these next two images for some reason.
I also did individual portraits of the kids.
Then we followed Morgan to a special spot down by the river. The kids had no idea he was being serious when he told them they’d be getting in the water. They were such good sports though and the pictures turned out really cool. The water was so cold it felt like a thousands knives piercing your body, or something… hehe.
Morgan’s friend Kimberly Albright also shot that day which was super cool.
And here is the man behind the shoot, Morgan Taylor. Morgan, you’re so awesome! Love ya!
