Ali and Sam

My oldest best friend, Judy (Klatt) Hoffman

had me photograph her darling girls Ali and Sam.

Ali looks like Judy, and Sam has her silly

personality!!  It was fun to hang out with 

Judy with her girls, a couple times Judy

and I did our silly voice and walk we use to 

do in high school.  Her girls just looked at

us like we where weird.  Of course.

We are so not cool anymore!

Fairy princesses

Zoe and Megan where so much fun to 

photograph this past weekend.  They broke

out their fairy princess halloween costumes

for me!!  I was honored.  They cast a spell for

more candy corn

Having mentors

My friend Adrian Buckmaster is one of the finest

photographers I know.  He has taught me so much

about this industry and the art of my craft. 

I think it is important to share with others and

give you suggestions. We have gotten into major debates

over things, because we are both very passionate people.

But I love debating and he doesn't mind it either.

It's healthy to challenge friends, it makes you grow and

think about things.   If you don't have a mentor,

maybe be open to one, and your mentor will find you.

I listed his site on my blog section (check out)

This is a portrait he did of my boyfriend Emil.

I love the teddy bear!!!!!

The North East in October

Jack o' lanterns, apple cider, cozy sweaters,

hot soup, red wine, fire places, dogs in their 

coats, socks, red leaves, candy corn, crisp air, 

second blanket, boots, orange sun, carmel apples,

spicy chili, football games, spice cookies, kids homework,

hayrides, scary costumes, pumpkin picking, snuggling.

Fall is here!!!!!!  It's my absolute favorite time of year!

Don't forget to put your nose up to the sky and smell

the season.

LOVE JOY

Last weekend I photographed a wedding in South Jersey.

The bride's name was so beautiful. Joy Love.   Nickname "Love"

It was suppose to rain that day, but I truly believe their strong

faith and the love from their families kept the rain away.

It was one year that day my Mom Mary Ellen passed away.

I really did not want to be working..I was blessed with God's presence

in the church during their ceremony.  It was a hint from my Mom that she was
