I’ve been a Getty Images creative contributor with the Flickr Collection for a couple of years now and it has been a profitable enjoyable experience. Many times since 2008 I have posted about my “need” to submit an application to become a regular creative Getty Images contributor. I took the little quiz way back when and […]

Mon Amour Script Pro: A treat to myself for finishing the semester on a high note. Over the spring semester, I will be taking three classes to fulfill my ‘learning beyond the classroom’ requirement. Don’t laugh but I’m taking basic river kayaking, sailing, & basic scuba diving. If you know me, then you know I’m […]
A beautiful smile is all you really need to shine. Nothing more! Nothing less! Check here to view more of my NYC Analog Street Portrait series.
Back in the fall while in NY for fashion week, I along with my homegirl Asia Willis had plans to attend several shows in what’s known as “The Box” at Lincoln Center. The Box is where all of the presentations were held. In case you don’t know, a [fashion] presentation is where the models are […]
The other day I received some feedback for something that I did recently. Not really a big deal because I always welcome feedback, but this feedback went in the wrong direction!

Like my beloved daffodil & gladiolus, this orchid only blooms one a year. Luckily, the flower lasts at least a month on this type of orchid. […]
Like the nerd that I am, I hung out at the Michigan Orchid Society Show to see some new beauties and hopefully pick up one or two. The exhibits were huge and very diverse, much larger than the Ann Arbor Orchid Festival. What I found not so great about the Michigan Orchid Society Show was […]
So my 2nd Detroit Pecha Kucha Night presentation has come & gone like a thief in the night. The evening could have not been any better! I was supported by my family, friends, members of the Detroit art community & somewhat of a rowdy crowd. OK, the crowd wasn’t rowdy but someone had way too […]
Years ago when I got my 1st Lensbaby camera lens, I learned to think differently about what a good photo was. Prior to getting it, all of my images HAD to have tack sharp details and robust colors. If it wasn’t perfect, I rejected it. After playing with the Lensbaby lens for a month or […]
