Sara Medina is an extremely persistent and outgoing person. She started photography about 7 years ago and has such a huge passion for it. She is an excellent artist who sees true beauty and value in everything she snaps a picture of. Her true dream and goal is to work for Rolling Stones Magazine. Her inspirations for her photography definitely match her personality! Fun and exciting, artistic and relatable to everyone and everything! I can definitely say there is nothing average about Sara. She always knows when to capture a pure essence of all things amazing in the world from your locals to the awesome concerts and venues and the beauty that nature has to offer. The best work comes from those who take a look at their surroundings and see much more than what meets the eye. Kind of cheesy I know, but there isn’t a better way to describe what she truly is passionate about. Her passion for photography speaks loud but her pictures are priceless! She has a true gift for this artistic style. A style that captures moments for a lifetime.
