Feasting around Seattle
At first glance, you can somehow see Penny De Los Santos' huge personality and wonderful curiosity. She is constantly looking around and studying everything. Then she starts talking about her work and you feel her tremendous passion. I walked away quite energized and I'm not even a photographer.
