"When someone else's happiness is your happiness, that is love."



My first job in life was as a big sister. I was born the oldest of four amazing people, whom I've had the privilege of seeing grow up. So, when my youngest sister told me she was getting married the moment was filled with both happiness, pride and a dozen mixed emotions. Then she asked me to take their pictures and of course I couldn't say no.

Goodbye 2014. Hello 2015.

"Self-criticism and judgement is the way you break your own heart." - Sarah Cuhr

Self-criticism, starts young, whether it be destroying the image in the mirror, or not liking the drawing we made in art class in Junior High, self-criticism begins the moment we realize we have an image. It's a well known statement that artists often hate what they create, and I'm no stranger to the emotional roller coaster of hating and loving (sometimes at the exact same time) my own work.
