2020 in review!

1/29/2021

2020 was a tough year for everyone, especially those of us working in industries that require close interaction with others in person due to the global pandemic.
We didn't get to create as much to say the least.
I put my photography business on hold for any and all indoor sessions until this is behind us which will most likely go into the Fall season of 2021.

I did get to do one assignment in 2020 after quarantine, a beautiful outdoor wedding event with my friend and makeup artist Vivienne Vermuth and her husband Jason Perkins. They hosted their event on Zoom for guests and had a very small socially distanced group in attendance.
We also all made the New York Times which was an extra bonus and an unexpected surprise!

If someone would have had a foreshadow of the events to come and said I could only do one event due to the pandemic, this is the one I would have chosen, a Halloween wedding on a Blue Moon with some lovely people!

Congratulations to Jason and Vivienne xoxo

SPELL !!!

12/19/2019

The annual Spell Portrait Sessions were especially enchanting this year! Special thank you to Julia Schloss for wardrobe assist and bringing some of the most wonderful props. The honeycomb we spotted while we were on a walk together on her land and we thought it would make the most unusual fascinator for our client's hair for the session.
It's one of my favorite things ever.

The 70's

6/1/2018

Remember the days of Flex Shampoo,Love's Baby Soft, David Bowie, Studio 54,Saturday Night Fever and Skatetown USA!
This was a fun session to create images from an era that I grew up in!
I used on camera flash and faded colors to create that old school "instamatic" 70's feel.
The clients brought so much fun energy to this shoot!
They really nailed it perfectly.
