My photography is inspired by the duality of light and shadows within us. The joy tinged with tears; the exhilaration after the fight.

I've tipped my toes into artificial light to be able to tell these stories better. I do love natural light but I don't want to be a slave to the weather or time of day. I took a few images of Abena in a studio last week using strobes. I am falling in love with being able to mold light.

I took these photos about 2 years ago at one of my favorite farms, Maple Acres in Plymouth Meeting. It has a cut your own flowers, a market, horses and a host of other farm animals that kids can pet. This session with Ari remains one of my favorite to date.
