Following on the success of the first round of fashion-y photos of my ZAAZ London colleagues, we went for round 2 with the new folks. This time I shot seven people instead of the original 18, which really gave me some time to get it RIGHT. I feel like I learned a lot the first Read more…
Gabe is pretty much a member of my family at this point. He’s spent numerous holidays with us and even did a reading at Aaron and Ashley’s wedding.

We spent Greek Orthodox Easter in Greece – on Lesvos, in Athens, and on Santorini. One day in Santorini, we went for a hike, and found ourselves a secluded church at the end of a peninsula. We set up a whole shoot there…spent a little time on Katie, Leslie, and Peter. These are my favorite Read more…
