VECU Magazine: THE DRIFT OF THINGS | Behind The Scenes
When all the pieces fall together, we make something uniquely special & truly beautiful. A farm, animals and the outdoors gave us the most beautiful canvas.
The last image is my all time favorite behind the scenes shot. A moment captured in time. We caught this one just as the sun was going down and we fought the edge of darkness.
Welcome To The Dollhouse
Scale is what you make of it and we put it to work with Tearra and photographer Michael Haug to re-create a childhood playland.
Always looking for inspiration, we love what Viktor & Rolf did in the summer of ‘08 with their dollhouse exhibit, showcasing their work-to-date. For additional images of the exhibit, you can visit Style Park.

Minnesota Timberwolves | Media Day | Behind The Scenes
New Coach + New Wolf Pack = New Possibilities!
Minnesota Timberwolves | Media Day never disappoints. This time around, I was able to spend the day with Carlos Gonzalez (one of my favorite people!) and his assistant Heather.
Kate Erickson patted shiny foreheads as I directed the players for each shot (and sat-in w/my best game face!).
Thanks to Carlos for this great video montage of our day with the Wolves!
MN BRIDE: Farm Shoot | Behind The Scenes
Just country girls and boys gettin’ down on the farm!
It’s been so warm that we’re still trying to hold on to fall (or summer!)!
Working a MN BRIDE shoot is always a treat and we had an amazing time shooting with William Clark Photography!
Late fall brought us beautiful sunlight, sweeping windmills, friendly goats+ chickens, dogs, cats and geese at a serene Wisconsin farm.

(As always, thanks to Mary O’Regan for the behind-the-scenes snaps!)
