Remembering What Counts: At the Highline

It’s been a while since I’ve gotten out and snapped some pics. Remembering the words of other creatives helped me to remember what matters most. Read about my “ah-ha” moment while walking the NYC Higline.

Next Photoshoot- Wet & Free!

This next shoot I’ve done a variation of when I was shooting black and white film (Ilford 35mm), but I want to explore it more and make somewhat of a collection using different models.

NYC-Dumbo Photoshoot

Hello hello! I had the pleasure of working with my friend Yeri this past week. The goal was to take OOTD (Outfit of the Day) style photos in a cool NYC landscape and for me to practice giving a model direction. I’ll admit, I went in a little unprepared as I didn’t have much time to plan out the shoot in detail; however, me made it work and the photos came out pretty awesome!
