SUMMARY

Love Youth is a dynamic youth ministry that gathers every Sunday morning, driven by the vision to extend God’s love to all people. Each service is an opportunity to capture moments of worship, fellowship, and life transformation. My role as lead photographer focuses on visually documenting the heart of the ministry and its impact on the youth.

THE CHALLENGE

I enjoy good challenges, and this project is definitely one of them. Finding fresh, creative approaches to storytelling each week while maintaining consistency in quality. Balancing the need to highlight unique moments while staying true to the ministry’s overarching vision requires adaptability and focus. Additionally, ensuring the photography captures both the energy of the group and the intimate moments of personal transformation demands a thoughtful and intentional approach.

THE APPROACH

I approach each Sunday with a commitment to building genuine connections with the youth, allowing me to capture authentic and impactful moments. Storytelling is at the core of my work, as I strive to showcase the transformation and growth happening within the ministry. By aligning my lens with the vision of extending God’s love, I ensure every image reflects the purpose and heart of Love Youth.
