... I have an ongoing challenge..... I am a niche- which is what every single business person told me to do. Specialize, specialize, specialize. And so I did.... I shoot food. I love to talk, dream, plan, think of, go out to eat, stay in and cook, talk some more about, travel so I can taste and experience.... it is a massive part of my life, culture, identity, and choice of my home- New York City.... however, all this foodism has led to the fact that many do not consider me when thinking of photographing people.

So, take a look! Its not one, but two people!! :) I joke, although it is a genuine challenge that I will remedy with a new sparkly website in 2012. This is my new friend and client, Nicholette and her husband Filip, I cannot find the proper words to express how pleasant they are, nor how much their energy permeates love. So, I leave you with this special additional holiday photo I did while doing a lifestyle with Nicholette, styled by my most amazing Charles Edward.

Happy Holidays to All !

You know how you have those glorious "right place, right time" moments? Well, facebook was born, and a few years later... I was wondering why my friend Maji was posting constantly with these mysterious updates about health department inspections, grades, and all this talk of opening a restaurant... was she opening a restaurant in NY and I wasn't aware? She was opening a restaurant but it was in the middle of the wonder that is Vermont.

Emails were exchanged, a plane ticket purchased, and I was on my way to shoot for her beautiful new space in Burlington. I had a truly lovely week that cultivated more projects, relationships, and work- and this is what I leave you with for now- Winter Squash Soup, Creme Fraiche Panna Cotta, and Savory Granola. :)
