WOOO gosh guys, thanks for the patience. Between a full time job, side freelancing, and other jobs I’ve picked up along the way it has been crazy busy, but I honestly would have it no other way. I’m addicted to tiring myself out.

Just want to apologize to the people I still owe photos to- I promise they’re coming!

A couple of shots I did for Liz Holmes, owner of Memoranda NYC back in January! The theme was almost about hopping around the map of retro appeal which I’ve never really done before, so I was more than happy to accept the challenge.

I had loads of fun working with her and the team. It kinda felt like I just had to show up with lights since she and her husband John gave me these beautiful sketches that just clearly showed what they wanted from me. Kinda took the guess work out of different lighting setups which can either be fun or prolong a full day’s worth of shooting over to the next day.

Anyway, her site launched weeks ago and it looks fabulous. You should most definitely go check out her pillows (I was so tempted to buy one on the spot: http://bit.ly/M4Oj27) and other goodies before they’re all snatched up. 

Ramblerambleramble. I should be back to my regular weekly posts as soon as next week is over :D
