tahni | the view from brooklyn

I’ll be sharing a slew of photographs from my trip to New York as soon as I get my film back – but I couldn’t wait to post a few images of my friend Tahni. As beautiful as she is talented, kind, generous, and funny, this girl showed me an amazing time in BedStuy, Brooklyn over the weekend. New York is a giant city – and my first time was slightly overwhelming, but I cannot wait to get back and see more of Tahni, and what the city has to offer. Just before I headed to JFK yesterday, Tahni and I headed onto her rooftop for an impromptu photo shoot. It was a perfectly cold and rainy New York morning, and Tahni looked divine in her (new!) vintage sequin dress. This – this life, this energy, these kinds of friendships – is what I live for.

let it snow | brynn andre | editorial

This job has provided me with so many opportunities to meet amazing and incredible people – and sometimes, the stars align and I get to work with them. One such individual – whom fortune brought into my life this past summer – is Brynn Andre. She is incredibly talented – both as a makeup artist as well as a singer-songwriter  – and when she asked if I’d be up for a little editorial shoot for her winter EP “Let It Snow” I couldn’t say no. Winter had not yet fallen in Minnesconsin at the time of our session – so we made winter come to us, and had an absolute blast in the process. Go pick up Brynn’s EP by clicking here, and check out her awesome review on the City Pages Blog!...

kindred hearts | me + jenna leigh

I met Jenna what seems like forever ago…but I know for certain it was about a year ago. We were netroduced (that’s introduced via the internet. See what I did there?) through her friend Brit, and their shared blog A Northwoods Wedding, and we became fast friends.  We finally – FINALLY – met in person on Thursday and we barely stopped talking long enough to snap these few frames. It was as though we’ve known each other our whole lives..well, her whole life (one of us is considerably older. cough cough.)  The hour was too short, and the time far too fleeting, but I have a sneaking suspicion we’ll be seeing each other again soon – or, at the very least – on my next trip to Madison. Here are a few shots I took of her, and just for kicks – a few she shot of me....
