Obsessions

Latest project

Obsessions




We all have an obsession, something that moves, motivates and captivates us. Sometimes our obsessions start small with a collection of something that interests us, like buttons or fabric and can grow from there.




There is an overwhelming desire to have everything and anything that has to do with one's obsession. To have had read every book, to possess every button or to be surrounded by stacks of fabrics and patterns everyday. Those kinds of obsessions are what made me want to begin this project. I have become mesmerized by them and want to explore their lives and what drives their obsessions.


This ongoing project is to find people and photograph them with or among their obsessions. I am more than thrilled with the individuals I have met so far and loved getting to know them and photographing their story. I can't wait to capture more!

Throwback Thursday! Film days

Throwback Thursday!

Throwback to the good ol' film days. Film? *gasp* What's film?



A while back I shot this beautiful cool toned image for Jezebel Magazine. To this day, it is still one of my favorite photographs. I miss film and all its' delicate complexities. Don't get me wrong, digital is amazing in its own right but there is something about film that you just can't match.

Title Boxing




 Pumping up the Adrenaline! 



I recently shot on location for Title Boxing during a training session. Moving in between punching bags with my camera and weaving around these talented kickboxers as they jabbed, cross hooked and front kicked the bags was a sight to be had!

It was exhilarating to go inside the ring and photograph a sparring session. I think I even learned a few things watching from behind my lens.

Throwback Thursday!

Here is an image I shot many years ago during film days.  It was one of those great surprises.  It was dark, time was running out, and I just told the model to hold still and I dragged the shutter for what seemed like eternity. The magazine I shot for was skeptical but I find that when I am in the moment, this is my best work. I have built trust with many of my clients and they know to give me my moment to "try" something.

I do miss that little imperfections that the film Scotch 1000 had!

Tribute to a Fashion Icon: Oscar de la Renta

Tribute to a Fashion Icon
Oscar de la Renta

"A runway is spectacle. It's only fashion when a woman puts it on."


         Paying tribute to Oscar de la Renta, who passed early this week. A fashion genius since the 1950's, Mr. De la Renta dressed some of America's leading first ladies and was known as the "Red Carpet King." Staying current and creating one-of-a-kind pieces, he was always surprising the fashion world with his elegant and eye catching styles.




Oscar de la Renta not only inspired many young designers but also inspired some of my fashion photography. The fashion icon knew how to grab attention and kept you wanting more.

"Being well dressed hasn't much to do with having good clothes. It's a question of good balance and common sense." -Oscar de la Renta

You will be missed!
