  • A Little Sweet Friday Treat

  • It's a beautiful sunny Spring day, but it feels so much like Summer already.  Something that reminds me of summer is cookies and an ice cold glass of milk.  It's the perfect treat after a day of working, playing in the park, lounging by the pool, or reading a book in the garden. Oh lookie here!  I have some cookies [...]

  • What is Melanoma?  Melanoma is a type of skin cancer.  It is less common than other skin cancers, however it is much more dangerous than the others if it's not caught in it's early stages.  Melanoma causes 75% of cancer related deaths.  What a frightening statistic!

  • An Underground Garage Beauty

  • The underground garage and communal hallways in an apartment building I used to live in had such a lonely and run down vibe to it.  It was a nice place overall, just unfortunate lighting and general lack of upkeep.  To me it was the perfect looking background for a photo session.  I was drooling at the thought of using[...]
  • Ice Beauty - {2013 Ice Storm}

  • Over the past few days my hometown and city have been covered in many layers of ice.  As a photographer the ice has created an absolutely beautiful and magical looking environment.  As a human being my heart aches for the 300,000 people without heat or electricity and it's just two days before Christmas.  While our cit[...]
