Beautifully and Authentically Telling People's Stories on the East Coast and Worldwide
Honestly, I am lazy by nature. I love comfort. If you opened my closet up you would see that by the amount of t-shirts and cotton hoodies I have acquired through the years. My natural tendency is to make excuses as to why I haven’t been able to complete a daily task or why I…

I have had some people email me recently asking me for help/pointers on photographing an engagement session. I am so humbled and honored that anyone would even ask me this. It was good for me to sit down and think..what do I do? So, after thinking, cups of coffee, listening to Ryan Adams and lots…
