Last week, I joined some fellow Katy photographers for a photo safari. A photo safari, or photo walk, as some are called, is basically when a group  of photographers go to a location together to shoot photos. A lot of people use the gathering to find new locations for portrait sessions, while others may use it to get some inspiration from just shooting for fun. 

Up until last week, I'd never attended a photo safari or walk, because I felt it was out of my comfort zone. I figured it would be a little uncomfortable to shoot in front of a bunch of other photographers. I thought maybe I'd get judged for how I shoot. But I decided it's never too late to conquer fears, and I shouldn't worry so much about what other people think. So I decided to go on my first photo safari.

The Katy ladies met at the Barker Cypress Park and Ride to head into downtown Houston, where we'd be shooting in the museum district-- the Cullen Sculpture Garden to be exact. I'd been to this garden in the past and always enjoyed my visits, but I had never photographed it. Looking through a camera lens always gives you a different perspective. Here's what I captured from my visit to garden.
