I’ve wanted an orchid plant for many years but was always afraid that I would be unsuccessful at keeping it alive. Every time, I saw one for sale, I would contemplate seriously but did not want to spend all kinds of dollars only to watch it wilt away. A few weeks ago, while at Whole […]

Rushing to have a quick dinner in the rain, I struggled to catch a cab. At this one moment, it seemed like everyone and their mother was on the corner fighting to get into the ubiquitous yellow honking cars. Few were able to snag a ride. When I said, forget it, I’ll take the subway, […]

I met Kimora Lee Simons back in Sept at Mercedes Benz Fashion week backstage after the Zac Posen Z-Spoke show. Before she walked in my direction, she did a mini slinky inky catwalk & the crowd was all abuzz.  It was fun to watch. She was bad ass & tall as hell! So once she […]

Yesterday, I kicked off a busy weekend photographing University of Michigan student, rapper, blogger, retail entrepreneur and soon to be model Julian Edward Toles. And oh yea, he’s my baby cousin.

Over the last few days, I was working hard at having a good time in Washington DC.

Moment of honesty: When I take photos of people, one of my biggest fears is that they will hand the photos off to someone who will Photoshop them to death or do some weird mess to them totally detracting from the photo. I’ve seen it done & my heart has been broken. This promo flyer […]

I wonder how many times the Brooklyn Bridge has been photographed.  I know I have captured it at least 10 times but never at night. I took this one evening while walking to China Town in search of a bottle of Tangueray.  If you follow me on Twitter, you may recall the drama that I […]

The calm on Celia’s face the, the sweat on her chest and the applauding audience created perfect storm in my mind… My favorite moment to capture at a concert performance is when the artist takes a step back and absorbs the audience’s vibe. I find this time to be especially intense when the crowd is […]

(L – R) Queen Aaminah, Helene Faussart, ME, Celia Faussart, Alexis Juliard Last night Suite Suzy & I attended the Les Nubians concert at the Magic Stick midtown Detroit. When I learned of the concert last two months ago, I was sooo pumped! I’ve been in love with Helene & Celia since the debut of […]
