Stillettos....Schnauzers.....Sparkles.....Oh My!





I am a huge dog lover so when I found out about the Humane Society hosting a dog fashion show I jumped at the chance to shoot it. The big event was held at the Italian Embassy. The evening was filled with the who's who of Washington. I really enjoyed getting to see so many dogs and such beautiful fashion.

Recently I was sent out to shoot Apple's iPad launch. Although I was not shooting at Apple's bigger locations, such as New York City or Los Angles, there was a lot of excitement in the crowd.

DC's Famous Trees




I've lived in DC for almost 3 years and I had not seen the famous cherry blossoms until last week. I went down to the Tidal Basin and shot the trees for Sipa, the French photo agency I am interning with. I really enjoy shooting things, such as the cherry blossoms, around town because they give me an excuse to experience the things I don't ever have time.
