“I am the sky and you are the earth. I transmit energy while you receive it from me. If I am the mind, you are the word that manifests from its thoughts. If I am a strain of music, then you are the song that stems from it. You and I, in essence, complete each...
I had the extreme pleasure of second shooting recently for Shipra Panosian, one of my favorite wedding photographers. While she had covered David & Sanam’s Indian wedding day, I was called upon to assist in second shooting for day 2 which was a white wedding at home.
The first time I heard from Dee, she said, “A few years ago I would visit your blog, read every article and watched every video on how to edit images… I am a huge fan of your work & the love you have for what you do. I’m newly engaged. I searched for you and found out...

You may remember that my daughter, Gracie May, has Rett syndrome and I love photographing these kids. I think I must have photographed about 60 girls and women with Rett in the last 3ish years. So when Jen got in touch for a session while they were in town, it was a quick “heck yes!”...
“The sea is emotion incarnate.” -Christopher Paolini, Eragon Two days later, I am still utterly basking in the glow of this session with Sam & Ana. I’m in Florida for a few days and, as always, I take every chance I get to make portraits of wonderful people while I’m here. We did this session...
