I absolutely love Low Key Photography, so I was really happy with the theme for this week!Low Key just fits me. The use of shadow and light, the way you can make something pop out of nothing, is magical to me. As a person, I’m pretty much low-key too! I like to do my own thing, mind my own business and tend to enjoy things in private instead of sharing it on Social Media for … Continue readingLow key
This week, I really wanted to honor my boyfriend Clint. Even though I’ve made thousands of photos of him during the years we’ve been together, he just had to be my model for this week’s theme “Man”. I’m very lucky to call him my partner in life, my best friend, and the person I call home. He is extremely kind, loyal, and even though he can be very irritating at times, he is the one … Continue readingMan
This week, I challenged myself to go wayyyy beyond my comfort zone by being my own model for the theme “Woman”. Making self-portraits is a difficult thing for me as a woman, a photographer, and a perfectionist. When I saw this theme coming up, I decided to just go for it and try my best to be gentle for myself. I really wanted to do something with feathers, representing a swan. My grandfather used to … Continue readingWoman
This week, I’ve asked my boyfriend to help me with the theme Distorted. It’s a genre I don’t shoot very often and I had trouble coming up with ideas that could work and got a little stressed about it. A couple of weeks ago, I started working at a new job and sometimes I feel like my head is about to explode with all the new information, impressions, and adjustments. I am very happy with … Continue readingDistorted

It’s the line I use to calm myself when ever I need it. I wanted to show how that moment feels, the moment just before I allow myself to “Just Breathe”.The moment you feel like you’re from outside looking in, while … Continue readingJust Breathe..
“Children are not only innocent and curious but also optimistic and joyful and essentially happy. They are, in short, everything adults wish they could be.” This week I was lucky to get a visit from this beautiful little girl, Marwa-May. At almost 4 weeks old, I was super impressed to see how calm she was. Those big eyes, so innocent and observing, were following me the whole time we were shooting. It made me think … Continue readingCurious
There is a shade of red for every woman.” For this shoot, I immediately thought of my gorgeous friend Eunise, a feisty, charming woman, to be my model for the color Red. There was no doubt in my mind that she could pull off representing my meaning of “Red” and she surely delivered! There is strength in “Red”, a popping color that can embody all kinds of strong feelings like power, passion, love, sexuality, danger, … Continue readingRed
