Member Monday Featuring Julie Chapa
Our next Member Monday photo makes us wish we were on vacation in Mexico! 😍
KelbyOne member Julie Chapa captured the bright blue water and smooth sand in a way that entices and draws the viewer in!
Here’s Julie to share her experience behind the scenes of her travel photography!
