Way back in the day, my mom wore turbans all the time. I thought she looked like some kinda of genie or something. In the 90s Andre 3000 wore a turban & it was just strange. Most recently, fashion maven, June Ambrose put the turban back on the map in a big way by freaking […]
My good friend Jasim DeForrest of Word Play Tee’s recently contacted me about a project that she is working on for her mother, Helen. The project being Helen’s huge upcoming retirement party. After 41 years with the Social Security Administration, Helen is calling it quits. When I read 41 years, I just said WOW. Thinking about […]

I love […]

Between my trips to LV & DC, I was away for 10 glorious days! Vegas had me beat down but DC lifted me back up leaving me feeling right & reenergized! I took my camera on both trips of course but I just was not motivated to use it. Let alone carry it with all […]
For the longest, my friend Loti has been telling me about her beloved medium format camera that she refers to as Big Mamma; a vintage Mamiya RZ67 with a 110mm f/2.8 lens.. She brags on how sexy & sweet Big Mamma is all the damn time. This past Friday, I got to experience Big Mamma for […]
Last weekend, I had the opportunity to photograph social commentator, blogge & friend, Amber Cabral downtown Detroit. Amber and I met many years ago here.
