Surely you’ve heard of Justin Hackworth and his 30 Strangers project? He’s a local {Utah} photographer and I love him. It’s really simple: he’s an extremely pleasant person {we could hang for hours}, he’s got a fantastic aesthetic, and he’s obscenely talented. What more could you ask for in a photographer?
He’s done this really cool project for the last few years called 30 Strangers where he photographs mothers and their daughters to raise money and awareness for The Center for Women and Children in Crisis.
It’s just amazing all around.
I applied to be a part of the 30 Strangers project and made the cut to do it this year! I was so excited, I’d read all about it in years past and was dying to do it.
Precocious is uncomfortable around the camera but we had fun at our session anyway. Justin is so easy to work with it should be criminal. My head seems rather large though, no? Bobble-head like?
My little sister is getting married this Summer, so I’m crossing my fingers we get to work together again. His photography makes me weep with joy.

I was part of his first 30 Strangers project a couple of years ago and I had a blast! I think it's awesome that you had the opportunity to do it as well; the photos turned out beautiful!
