Candice Smith Photography: Candice Smith Photography

I recently had the honor of being featured on an amazing website/blog that I am truly inspired by and I wanted to share that feature on my own blog with all of you. Beauty revived is a project for photographers to give back to women (ages 12+) who inspired them and/or others and to showcase that woman in photo. Their FAQ explains it well so I thought I would quote that here:

"What is Beauty Revived?

Beauty Revived: Beauty through the lens of photographers who care. Beauty Revived is a place for photographers to give back. It is a site that encourages photographers to use their lens for good. All that is required is to giveaway one free session.

Mission Statement: to uplift, inspire and empower photographers of faith and integrity to shed light on the good, the strong and the beautiful.

What is a Beauty Revived Session? A Beauty Revived session is a session donated by a photographer to a woman who displays attributes of true beauty. These sessions can be done any way and style but should be appropriate to tell their story."

There is no better person to feature first than my dear friend Connie so I photographed and sent in her session. Because of the number of submissions, not all of them are featured on the blog so I had to wait for confirmation. I didn't have to wait long before I was contacted and given the day that my session would appear on their website. It just so happened that the day it would go live would be the same day that my friend would be moving back home so it'd be waiting for her when she arrived. I couldn't have planned that if I tried :)
