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 […]

Walking past bright tulips always cheers me up! This one was like a spot of sunshine. I started to take it home but there were too many people around…
After class this evening, I was walking back to my car when I spotted a cheery tree in full bloom. The pink was vibrant and inviting so I decided to walk over to admire its springtime charm. As I stood there in wonderment, I got a whiff of something sweet and perfume heavy. It was […]
Feels funny posting this photo considering the spring time heat wave that we are experiencing in the Midwest. But, I will not be fooled! I fully expect it to snow at least once more before April 4th.

I met New York photographer Fernando Colón backstage at the BCBGMAXAZRIA Mercedes Benz Fashion Week show back in September 2010. Initially, I hated on him because his hair is ‘ALMOST’ better than mine but I got past all of that because Fernando was one of the first photographers that I met who was actually real & […]
I would crack a witty joke about Little Boy Blue but I will let the photo speak for itself. I thought his coat was pretty cool, strange but cool. Later on the same day, I saw a white chick rocking the same coat. Should have taken a photo of her to examine who rocked it […]
