This time last year, I was nervous as hell about photographing at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week for my friends at The NYLA Report. I had an idea of what to expect but that did not settle my anxiousness at all. You may remember me talking about it non-stop. With two seasons of Mercedes Benz Fashion […]

So, I’m posting this from NYC in the wake of hurricane Irene. Im hoping that Im able to get home by Tuesday night. I really am…. Stay tuned! ——————— Last weekend, I had an idea to photograph Black women with natural hairstyles in Detroit for a mini interview project. I set out with all of […]
Last weekend, I took a road trip clear across the state to photograph Jeff & Ximena’s beach wedding. Jeff contacted me because Ximena’s sister, Linda was a wedding client of mine a few years ago and she suggested me for this occasion. Now, I am considered to be the family photographer and friend. I love […]
One of the VERY 1st CDs that I EVERY purchased was Rachelle Ferrell’s self titled album “Rachelle Ferrell” back in 1992. I purchased the album because I fell in love with her voice on “No Rhyme, No Reason” by George Duke, where she was on background vocals. I was infatuated. The “Rachelle Ferrell” album didn’t […]

I met Tarian & Zarha virtually months ago through a mutual connection whom I met through a connection because of yet, another mutual connection about 3 years ago at a wedding that I photographed. I guess you […]
I’m gonna be honest; I’m not a big fan of Frida Kahlo’s work. That may be because I’m freaked out by unibrows. Yes, I’m superficial….. Even with my aversion to unibrows, I do love this quote from Frida. It’s very inspiring! I spotted this art installation at famed chef/restaurateur Rick Bayless’ restaurant Frontera Grill during […]
It was a Friday evening & I was in Harold Square waiting to meet friends when I bumped into this young man. He was dressed rather handsomely so I had to stop him for a photo. I got two images and his eyes were closed in both of them but I guess that’s ok. It […]
What’s not to love about tiger lilies? Especially bright pink ones… Actually, the lilies in my garden are your standard range variety but sometimes when I’m processing images, my mind wonders, then I tend to chop & screw colors like Michael Watts does beats. Life would be the bomb, if you could alter reality with […]
