My Senior Thesis

After 6 months of documenting Sidra, John and Martin-Lane I edited down all my images to 12. My story hung in the Corcoran's Gallery 31 for a week. Opening night was fantastic! So many people came to support Nick, Matt, Jason, Erika and I. After all the hours and hard work it felt wonderful to see it on the wall.

Final Thesis Shoot

Today I am starting to print images for my thesis show next month. Looking at all of these images made me realize what a difference a few months make. Before I started my thesis project I barely knew what goes into our meat, the time it takes to grow pumpkins.... countless pieces of knowledge. Spending time with Sidra, John and Martin-Lane has taught me not only about food but how a family can work and live together in the same space, provide for themselves as well as those around them. I am grateful for all they have shared with me.

Thesis - Saturday Night Dinner

Thesis - A Busy Long Night

Thesis - 1st Home Lunch

Home Restaurant - September 17th

I had the opportunity to photograph another home restaurant recently. The people were different but the feel was very much the same. The home restaurant was filled with lively music, warm candles, savory food and laughter. The care that goes into each of their dinners is something very special and rare among dining establishments. It was so easy to see why people love coming to Sidra, John and Martin-Lane's home.

First Home Restaurant

Recently I had the pleasure of attending my first home restaurant with Sidra, John and Martin-Lane. It was very warm and intimate with 10 people in attendance. The company as well as the food served made the night enjoyable.
