Little did we know that their celebration would be one of the last gatherings the guests would enjoy for quite some time.

Planning your wedding amid a pandemic
I think we all have been feeling a little (or a lot) lost these days. For couples planning your wedding celebration, the day that you’ve been planning won’t happen the way you envisioned (and frankly, a few months ago, expected it would). In an already emotional and stressful process, this is so much more than […]

Typically my mom hosts Thanksgiving but in my former life working with college students, our student center put on a Thanksgiving dinner […]
Modern Industrial Shoot
This shoot might be one of my favorite shoots to date. Why? Because it reminded me to take risks and to go bold in design, with small details to tie it all together. The protea stole the show for sure. Never heard of them before? They are a glorious tropical flower, shockingly soft petals, and […]
