End of Year Thanks!

Happy Holidays! 2023 was an exciting year with lots of new clients and fun projects. It’s great to continue challenging myself in my work and growing my business connections. It was my first full year working with my rep Carolyn Somlo who has been a great production partner. Can’t wait to dive into 2024 and work on more exciting projects.

Enjoy this tasty whipped coffee drink for the holidays styled by Janine Kalesis.

Thank You 2022! Hello 2023!

Wrapping up 2022 with a full heart and many thanks to go around! So many new clients this year that trusted in me and my team to bring their concepts to life. It takes a village for these projects to come to fruition and every year that village grows. Every project this year was unique. I can’t pick one that was better than the other. Also each project comes with its own challenges, but we always find the light at the end of the tunnel and finish with amazing work. That’s why I think it’s really important to wrap each shoot with a blog post and some B.T.S. because what might look like a simple image or video from the outside, takes a lot of planning, and various stages to go through to get us to that finish line.

Again thank you for helping me grow my business in 2022 and look forward to seeing you in 2023!
