This is possibly the most convinced-there-could-never-be-a-good-picture-of-her client I have ever had. I’m glad to say she was pleasantly surprised!

Happy anniversary to @leacytosis and Gabe who got wedded a year ago this month, on a beautiful windy day by the ocean. We were doing some couple portraits when someone setting up for the ceremony yelled over a question, and the bride immediately ran away to help, beautifully!

@lucialinviolin (gifted violinist with the #bostonsymphony, among other things). A magical bit of this photo session was when I asked her to play for a bit... and something about that gorgeous, rich sound pouring over the sunny field... so unexpected and kind of just for me... Man!

We made these portraits for a new website introducing her project, In Tandem. It's dedicated to bringing new voices to, and breaking barriers of color, in classical music. See lucialin dot com for duet videos from the project.

Portraits to celebrate a big anniversary. Everyone's emotions so beautifully close to the surface. Trying to make photos that capture their shared history and the kind of love you can settle into. Plus, i love their hands.

Headshots with @scorpionsinger for her work as a singer, model, and actress. A variety of looks showing she can be the girl next door and also maybe a very hot Carmen. She told me later she signed with a modeling agency, partly due to our photos. Hurray!

That time i photographed @moodystreetcircuskid and @cirquemelinda being amazing on their aerial equipment, and we were done and i was starting to pack up and they said, Okay, your turn!

What!? I was skeptical, but when the prima coaches are telling you yes... of course you have to go for it!

1) showing me my first move. 2) hoist assist. 3) adjusting to how high it feels to mere mortals. 4) I learned one hand is for styling and one hand is for: Death Grip!

Here's a little more summer, from when the bride and groom biked down this beachy road to their ceremony. Suddenly it was like I was watching some Audrey Hepburn movie!

(Thanks @lenamandelis for connecting me with this family! ♥️)

I got to photograph this #tinywedding on the beach. Such a gorgeous day, which was partly the setting and the weather, but mainly the couple and their dearest ones coming together to celebrate with them. Me: trying to catch all the feelings with my camera. 😊

The last photo session i had before everyone had to go home. They're to celebrate her bat mitzvah and ordinarily I would have some really fun party pics too, but the party was cancelled of course. Glad we got these at least!

Thinking of the boost we can get from nature... I remember this time at Bryce Canyon when we said, should we get up super early and go photograph the dawn? and we decided yes even though the forecast was cloudy... and we got our lovely dawn photos. And then we were turning away, okay let's go get breakfast, and right then this rainbow shimmered into being right before us and i was just stunned with appreciation. Speechless! Overwhelmed by beauty. With @wigglefloofs and @definitely_hans

I'm thrilled that my friend Kathy Yang is the cover warrior on the new issue of this French martial arts magazine, and that this is my photo! Woohoo! It's great to see her coming into her own as a teacher. (And delivering the"sense of enemy" stare.) Her business is called TCM Time. (Traditional Chinese Medicine time)

A dark image for All Hallows Eve. Thanks to B for always being my willing model. And then this from one of my favorite poets, #MaryOliver:
To live in this world
you must be able
to do three things:
to love what is mortal; to hold it
against your bones knowing
your own life depends on it;
and, when the time comes to let it go,
to let it go." (And thinking of my mom who would have been 98 today. Miss her. )
