One Year! Anniversary Trip

So many images from Colorado..and time is slipping away..!

So i thought i'd post a special shout out to my man...who i am about to celebrate ONE whole year of marriage with!..with some trip highlight pics.

Though my photo opening brought us to Colorado, we turned the rest of the trip into a little celebration, since I'll actually be out of town (that post to come!) for our actual anniversary in a few days.

Its been quite a year. Its been an amazing year. Its also been a challenging year. I guess you dont treasure the calm, if there have never been any waves.

But I have found someone to not only share the journey with, but to make the journey our own..funny, scary, kooky, amazing, shocking, brilliant, unexpected, and weirdly cool...and for that, I feel damn lucky.

Happy Anniversary Babe. !!

Colorado Part 1-Photo Opening

Attended the opening for the 'Blue' show at the Center for Fine Art Photography in Ft. Collins, Colorado where I had 2 pieces in the show, one that received Director's Honorable Mention.

It was a great show. I thought they curated a great collection. And I was honored to be part of it.

And I met a handful of amazing fellow photographers that also travelled to the show. Alec Von Bargen came in Mexico, Patricia Clarke from Santa Barbara, and Gabi Helfert from Rotterdam! Hamidah Glasgow, the Director at the Center took us to dinner afterwards. I will never get sick of sitting around a table with photographers and talking about the work, our work, their work, other work, the thoughts behind it all, why we do it, why we dont do it, why we do that instead of this, and why we do this instead of that. I love it!

And a pic of my super supportive husband who was looking quite cute at the show if I might add.

Lynne + Tim Counting the Days

Sorry for the lack of posts!

Andrew and I have been away...more on that later!

We've just returned and I wanted to share a shoot i did right before we left.
Lynne and Tim are expecting their baby's arrival very very soon!

Lynne is a dancer (and Tim is a musician. hello talented baby!)...and was mesmerizing to photograph.
I could have made pictures with her all day.
The photo shoot felt like a quiet celebration...of everything present and everything to come.
If I could bottle up the energy of the studio that day, shake it up, and let it go, out would come these images of Lynne.
For me, when photography really works, it captures so much within the confines of the frame, that it almost seems as if the frame might burst.

And the cutest part was that while I was shooting, Tim sat on an apple box on the side, from time to time saying, wow honey, you look amazing. you look so beautiful.

right he was.

all the best to you guys! cant wait to meet the new addition very soon.

Colorado Bound

This Friday, I have 2 images in the "Blue" show at the Center of Fine Art Photography in Ft Collins, Colorado. I'm super honored to be part of the show where one of my images, "Come and Go" received Honorable mention.

I'm also super excited to head that direction because I lived in Fort Collins for 3 years many moons ago! Before New York, before photography, there was Colorado...where I worked at the Suicide Resource Center developing a school program to talk to teenagers about suicide and suicide prevention. It was a super meaningful part of my life and an experience for which i'll forever hold close to my heart. I'm really excited to take Andrew there to show him a completely different part of my life.

Enjoy your week! And if you happen to be in Colorado on Friday, come on by!

p.s. I just realized I said "super" 3 times. Seriously, that is super ridiculous.
