Henry let me tag along on another engagement session recently. I’m extremely grateful because I’ve learned so much just by watching him do what he does. That and being able to ask him questions after the shoot has taught me so much. Since I’m assisting, I try to stay in the background as much as
There was this one time… when we went to Cambodia… and hopped on a boat… that went across Tonle Sap… to check out a Vietnamese floating village. Yeah, that was cool. Surreal and beautiful. I miss traveling and realized today that I NEED to find a way to do more of it. It’s not something
Christine Meintjes, my favorite wedding photographer, came to the States for a few weeks and I got to meet her last night!

Matt and I were out walking the other day and came around the corner to find thousands of small flags strung overhead. It’s a temporary art installation by a French artist at One Colorado (until tomorrow!). I kinda wish they’d leave them up all year! Walking under them reminded me a bit of walking under
