It took us about 5 or 6 attempts with the playing card toss to capture some winners. Rachel was totally game for each reset. I realized quickly that even the shots of her picking up the cards from the floor were pretty cool. This is the second of three outfits, and it just gives me this classy, jazzy feel that matches the cards. And even though the soundtrack for the day on set was rave music, you can almost hear the jazz in these shots.

I feel like I just blinked and it had suddenly been MONTHS since I did a photoshoot. This was a fun set with the lovely Grace that's starting to play with new themes I want to explore, like reflections and points of view. Definitely more to come.

How have y'all been?

Also, be sure to drop by Arte Noir, ACES, and soon, Gallery B612 to see my work on display!!! Really excited about all three opportunities 😊

I've been working on some new pieces the last few months celebrating Black hair in portraits and photocollages. I wanted so badly to work with Jeremy again, an amazing artist in the area. I was thrilled when he was down for a photoshoot. The photos we got are some of the best I've ever taken.

Stay tuned for more 😎
