It’s no secret that I’m a foodie, and it’s probably fairly apparent that I enjoy photography. Pairing my passion for food and my enjoyment of photography only makes sense for me. When I was given the opportunity to be part of the first ever Social Fabric University Food Photography by Sony class, I jumped at the chance. It was an opportunity to learn more about background, lighting, styling, props, and technique. During the learning process, I would be building a portfolio, but more importantly, I would be gaining skills to help me be able to better share my foodie passion…

Happy 13th Birthday, Munchkin!
Posted in Family, and Photography
Our baby girl is 13. It’s hard to believe we’re parents to a teenager. Munchkin’s requested meals for her birthday from top to bottom all gluten free: homemade french toast sticks with fresh strawberries, turkey sandwich with apple slices, baked mac ‘n cheese with tomato salad, strawberry shortcake in the shape of a heart.
