installment one: dark secret's award winning photographer, graham morrison

this is the first of four posts that will showcase
the work of the photographers who were selected by sean carroll in the ...dark secret challenge. 
below you will find the energetic, colorful photographs of graham morrison.
please feel free to leave constructive comments here on the blog,
but also know that you can reach graham personally through his website or his facebook page!

I am from a small town; a really small town. 
When I was growing up, I felt like photographs were my connection to the world outside of my town. 

I started exploring my own world through photography when I was quite young.  
My mom bought me a green Polaroid camera. 
I didn't have any human models, so I would pose my toys, 
stuffed animals, 
my sisters Barbies,
whatever I could find. 
Those are my earliest memories of working with models in front of my lens. 
Interestingly enough, I am basically doing the same thing now as professional adult!

People fascinate me more than anything else and 
I love creating images that share that fascination with others.
