Last I left off, I decided to write a bit about my trip to LA due in part to having a shoot with Shannon Brooke. This project was an exercising in exploring and celebrating myself. I wanted these images to reflect my coming out. They speak for me on what I am unable to put… Continue reading The Shoot
Luxurious, self-indulgent, and a bit of glamour was to be the start of my February.

My daughter was also another year older and with that a… Continue reading La vie en Rose! 2015

No more filler stuff. Wear the nice things regardless if I'm going out or not. Things that are… Continue reading Bibliotheca – August Theme

So I am still settling into my role with Bay Area Kei (BAK) as a newly appointed video editor. There was a post asking if anyone was available to do video edits and motion graphics and I happily volunteered. To provide some context here, my demo reel is in a state of poor neglect; I… Continue reading Rosé Forêt
