During this time, I am incredibly thankful for photography. I can do it safely, from a distance and it gives me the opportunity to be creative.

This family is incredibly dear to me and they have also been physically distancing. We agreed on 10′ apart and masks for everyone involved, except the model. (I know I don’t have to explain, but I’ve also been outspoken about distancing and wearing masks, so I feel I need to share the precautions I’m taking to be sure my clients and my family are safe.)

Rachel is a New York city based artist. She hand embroiders on site. On site! We casually discussed her past clients and I was floored and amazed. (can you say – starts with ‘goo’ and ends with ‘p’?!!!)

Rachel’s grandmother taught her to embroider and since she was there, we agreed she just had to be in a few of the pictures!

Her creativity had transformed their home into the most inspired spread I’ve ever seen. She was an absolute joy to be around, just like her mom.

Rachel, I loved working with you! I wish you all the success in the world! Thank you for letting me be a part of your creative process!
