Escaping the City: I had a great day hike with friends today. So nice to get out and enjoy a little sun while it lasted. We even had time for tea and coffee on the ridge top. I think I could do this every weekend and never get tired of it.

Fun Times on a Roof: Another day on an NYC rooftop setting lighting and hoping the wind plays nice and keeps us all from going over the edge. Amazing project and fantastic crew.

New Food Photos:

What a busy few months its been.  I've been shooting so much for my commercial clients.  I'm really looking forward to showing some new work once it starts to be published starting this winter and spring.

Today I went into the studio and spent a few hours testing with some root vegetables.  I'm working on ideas for an upcoming personal project now that I have some time.  More to come soon.  In the meantime, take a look at my primary website for updates.
