Happy Black History Month! On February 1, 1960, four college students from North Carolina A&T State University helped change history by staging a sit-in at the Woolworth’s Department Store in Greensboro. As the sit-ins spread in popularity, eventually Woolworth’s and other stores desegregated their businesses and lunch counters. In celebration of the month, I will […]

As I have stated before, somewhere, even though I specialize in children’s portraits, I am a portrait photographer at my core. I love photographing people. I love the energy exchange during the session and the collaborative nature of them. Normally, when I do photograph adults, it is either for headshots/branding or of parents with their […]

If you are familiar with my work or have been following me for a while, you probably already know that I am predominantly a child photographer. It’s not that I don’t enjoy photographing adults because I do. It’s just that I really, really enjoy photographing children. I like to photograph them when they are old […]

Hey, hey hey! Calling all child models! Lately, I have been very busy behind the scenes trying to prepare for this. For quite some time, I’ve been vacillating about where I wanted to take my photography and I believe I have settled on fine art portraits for children. Fine art portraiture may not be for […]

Recently, I got the chance to photograph one of my favorite subjects again. Chanelle! In case you don’t remember, here she is. The first time I photographed her was for her mother to submit images to some child modeling agencies. We had such fun! She’s excellent at following directions and she even entertained me with […]

Hey, hey, hey! It’s another week and yet another blog post. Every week I have to come up with a new topic to blog about.

Happy Wednesday! I hope this post finds you well. Being that we are all stuck at home during this pandemic we might as well be productive. I do have friends who are currently photographing during this time but I have not begun. Just when I was about to officially reopen, my county received a serious […]

This week has been a very challenging week, as far as my blog goes. Yes, I know it’s only Tuesday.  I have been having writer’s block and couldn’t figure out what I wanted to write about this week. For whatever reason, I couldn’t come up with a single tutorial I wanted to share or other […]

Colors. Colors. Colors. Colors. Colors. Colors. Okay, some of you may know where I’m going with this and others may not. If you’re part of the latter group, check out this link. Now I must tell you, after the first 2 or 3 seconds you may want to turn it off because some serious gangsta […]

Gee, how long has it been now? Are we on week three or week four? I just checked my calendar and this is week three. It is so easy to lose track of time when you don’t have anywhere to be. If I know what day of the week it is, then I’m doing really […]
