One of the highlights from my recent trip to Los Angeles was getting to meet my long time online friend and cousin in my head Liz Dwyer aKa Los Angelista. Liz and I have been connected since Katrina or maybe a little after when I stumbled upon her blog and fell in love with her […]

I’m back from my LA trip and my body is off. The time difference worked a number on me like you would not believe! Being in LA for the first time as a serious adult was quite eye opening and exciting. And of course, I want to live there now. Everybody knows that I love […]
When talking to potential senior portrait clients, I am often asked, “what should I come with.” My response more often than not is “come with everything did” I’m talking: Make up did. Hair did, Nails did. Clothing selections did! Everything. I mean, let’s be honest, who wants photographs that have limited visual appeal. I’m just […]
This afternoon, I was out shopping for a few items for a dinner party that I’m hosting this weekend when I get a text from my Los Angeles boo, Asia Willis. I wipe my iPhone on my pants before I read the message (because it was super greasy but that’s another story). She said “You […]
After picking up our Mercedes Benz Fashion Week press credentials, my assistant/Cousin Dee headed to Lincoln Center to oooh & aaah at the façade of the tents that we would be camped out in for 5 long days. This was 3 hours before the NY Sip & See… And 1.5 hours before the Gretchen Jones […]

Counting down the days, hours and minutes left before I board that plane for New York to do my Mercedes Benz Fashion Week work. Oh and fun and museums and hopefully […]
A couple months ago, I received a referral from a friend (Thanks Bethany!!!) to photograph a small wedding reception that occurred last week. When I say small, I’m talking about really small. Nice. Intimate. Non-intense. Just nice…. The event was at The Whitney Restaurant, a favorite old Detroit establishment and one of the oldest mansions […]
June Ambrose may be one of New York’s busiest fashion stylist but she is always smiling & will pause for the cause and give a photographer the time of day. That’s why she is my boo in my head. Just in case, ‘you aint know,’ June has her own reality show coming to VH1 Feb […]
