Amy : Red Rose Vintage : Dreamstream
Yo. My girl Amy is fierce. I mean, the definition of fierce: wild, savage, intense, eager. All of it. She took a 1976 Airstream RV, gutted it, and transformed it into a rad mobile vintage clothing shop. Amy can go anywhere she pleases, any time. She wanted to start this business to satisfy the appetites of people who were tired of the same old (and bad quality) corporate clothing, and because high rent prices in the downtown Charleston area make it near impossible to cut a profit.
Red Rose Vintage is an 80s fashion superstore full of pieces with attitude, character, color, and no shortage of sequin/neon/fringe/etc. I wanted these images to be as savage as Amy is. So enjoy.
Message me HERE if you are interested in booking a shoot like this.

Chris Sullivan. Portrait of a musician.
I have known Chris as my trainer at Charleston Krav Maga & MMA for the past few years and also knew that he was a very talented musician. I was stoked when he asked if I could take pictures of him for a new website launch. Based on his personal and musical style I immediately began researching images of Johnny Cash to channel that vibe on our shoot. Here is a short bio taken from Chris' new site www.youngsullivan.com:
Originally from Jacksonville, Florida, Chris Sullivan grew up in Charleston, South Carolina where he fell in love with and began playing music. Sullivan’s vast musical influences solidify his no nonsense approach to delivering music unadulterated by trend and loyal to heart while expressing the introspective aspects of his life that otherwise would remain untold. Currently, Sullivan is busy writing and looks forward to releasing new music in 2016.

Baby it's cold! So take a look at Mexico and warm up.
Recently I decided that I very much deserved a little vacation from everything. So I booked a trip to Mexico and went- just like that. No husband, no kid, just me and my mom and a lot of Spanish speaking and local food. It was wonderful. We went to Tulum, which is a little over an hour south of Cancun. It's a no-frills sleepy beach town with not much else to do than ride bikes around "town" and go to the beach. That's just what we did.
The food is amazing and the people are friendly. Take a bike, explore the neighborhood, find a restaurant with only locals, and submerge yourself in this vibrant culture. You won't be disappointed.

Some lovely couple handed their baby to my mom while the snorkeled the Gran Cenote... of course she could not refuse!

Fall/Winter Recap. More pretty people I got to spend time with!
The new year has long past and I love the time I get to reflect on the work I've done and the people I've had the pleasure of getting to know. Since moving down here to Charleston from Brooklyn 3 1/2 years ago, I have connected with families and followed them on their unique journeys. Engagements led to weddings and babies, second pregnancies gave way to bigger, crazier, and more joyful families, and I've realized my client galleries have become a bit of a timeline that I get to document and keep.
I always say that what I do is a privilege, and I mean it. So thank you, again, for letting me into the depths of who you are.

Summer/Fall Photography Recap... because I'm solo behind...
Why is blogging so hard? It's not hard, I just have to make time for it. So instead of blogging for each session I have done over the past few months, I present to you- a mini-recap of the wonderful and beautiful people I have had the pleasure of photographing. Here you will find lovely families, newborns, engagements, and a few stylized portrait shoots.
