There is always something I find so mesmerizing about voyeuristic photography. I know that sounds so incredibly odd and I might lose some people after saying that but I don’t mean it in a creepy way, more in a I am interested in the way others live, way. When we go home and close the door behind us, our lives our completely our own. Whether you walk around your home naked or sing extremely loud in the shower – these are all quirks hidden behind your walls. So when photographers like Gail Albert Halaban capture peoples lives “behind the walls” I am always extremely fascinated. In my latest art find – Paris Views – Gail Albert Halaban captures la vie parisienne so extremely well! You almost feel like you are there, sitting in the room across the way taking in everything the people of Paris are doing. I absolutely love this series and so did a lot of others as GAH followed this session with a NYC series, Out My Window! Her work is incredible and she is definitely one to watch! If you are as captivated with this series as I am you can have a little piece of it via her book Paris Views (Aperture).

I have always been fascinated by photography. I have spent countless hours studying photographs of people, while considering the angles, the lighting, and the editing the photographer used. I love the fact that photography has the amazing ability to transport us to a different time, or place with one single shot.
It was not until I started blogging that I decided to take photography more seriously. With camera in hand, I started experimenting with photographs of my apartment, of friends, and family. It was after experimenting in this way that I realized my passion for photography. I have no formal training or background in this field, but I realize that passion can open your eyes to the impossible, so not only did I invest in the proper equipment I also spent the necessary time to learn everything I could to enhance the skill it takes to be proficient with this passion.
I enjoy, and appreciate the opportunity to photograph bloggers, couples, influencers who make an impact in their profession, families, and also lifestyle type setting. I take an individual approach to each person I photograph. I make every effort to embrace and highlight the focus of what they are trying to convey to their audience with each session.
I look forward to working together and capturing the potential magnificence of your moments through my eyes and the lens of my camera.
