coney île {creative outings}

sometimes it’s so easy to find inspiration everywhere and then other times….nothing.
we all go through it from time to time and some recharging is in order.
my friend and fellow photographer, peghi, suggested that we choose a location and
just go shoot what we see.  a kind of creative adventure for ourselves…
a creative scavenger hunt.
she had the great idea of roaming around coney island.
we went late in the afternoon.
the park had an alluring lonely abandoned atmosphere that made us
feel as if we were somewhere….not here…parfait!

pehgi {mon ami}

we all joke about how hard it is to be on
the other side of the camera,
but it’s no joke when you are there;)
pehgi has photographed me
(she made it easy and fun and…i loved my photos)
so now it was my turn to photograph her…
pehgi, my friend, fellow artist and
photographer extraordinaire.

Jess (studio3z) - Gina, the shots of her twirling in the cemetery are magical! I’m dying to know where “the boathouse” is. I love it! Looks like you guys had a blast together. 🙂

olivia {turns one}

when elizha (mom) asked me to take her daughters 1 year photographs,
i was thrilled!
not only is she beautiful, she is perpetually in a good mood;)
she must have known something good was up because she was extra ‘on’ this day.
