A lot of effort goes into planning for social media — maybe a little more than you’d think! It’s no secret that I LOVE Instagram.  I’m obsessed with it, really.  I love to curate my feed and I frequently scroll through it to keeps tabs on my colors, balance, perspective, and subject matter.  I’m always playing around with […]

This beautiful lady is Avanti, and she’s my best friend of almost TEN years now…. what?! We met during the first week of our freshman year of high school and have been two peas in a pod ever since.  Horses have been Avanti’s passion for as long as I’ve known her.  I can remember a few […]

My workflow has pretty much stayed the same since college.  I’ve made a few tweaks here and there, but for the most part we were given a pretty solid plan of attack!  Ever since upgrading to my Nikon d810, I now shoot with both an SD & CF card (side note, LOVE my CF cards…. […]

Last week, Kristina and I met at Robert’s Garden Park in Morris Plains to grab some portraits of her before she heads off to her first year of college — such an exciting time! There wasn’t a cloud in the sky that ENTIRE day until golden hour rolled around…. and that’s when it looked like […]

A couple of weeks ago I had the wonderful opportunity to second shoot for Tracey of Tracey Krick Photography at the Brandywine Manor House in Honey Brook, PA (SERIOUS venue goals, you guys!).  Not only is Tracey an absolute sweetheart but she is an amazingly talented photographer as well!  I had so much fun photographing alongside […]
