If you haven’t already been able to tell, we had such a great time with the Redeeming Grounds team in Colombia. We had such a great balance of work, building relationships, and play while taking photos and filming – just the way we like to work on projects! Just in case you didn’t get a chance to follow us on Instagram, or even if you did, I thought I would …
I will never drink coffee the same way again. We arrived back from Colombia late last night and this morning as I made my cup of coffee I couldn’t help but think about the hands that farmed it. I am looking forward to sharing video and photos of the farmers and their families so that you can make a cup of Redeeming Grounds coffee in the morning and know the hands that …
A few weeks back we spent the weekend in West Virginia shooting a promotional video for an amazing organization, Appalachian Impact. We enjoyed spending some time in the mountains, away from the city, and also spending time with such an amazing team of people. We left feeling so refreshed. Appalachian Impact assigns mentors to at-risk youth in rural West Virginia- and after spending time with some of these mentors, we can …

In a couple hours, Erica and I will be setting down in Colombia, South America for a video and photography project. The photo above shows a few items I like to have on hand yet don’t get a lot of credit – especially when we travel. Whether keeping us better organized, shedding a little extra light in the dark, or needing an extra strap to tie down pretty much anything, we …
In honor of tomorrow being the International Day for Street Children, I thought I would share a few portraits I did of the Change Boys while we were in Ethiopia. Those of you following our blog for a while will probably remember when we filmed Change Boys, a short documentary about a band of street boys in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia whose lives were forever changed when a group of committed …
Earlier this month we spent a few days in New York City working on event photography and video for a product launch with our friends at Bray Creative. They are ridiculously talented and we thoroughly enjoy working with their team every time we get the chance. It’s always great to work with people who both inspire and challenge you creatively – and who you actually enjoy hanging out with in …
Work & Faith is a National Community Church gathering of professionals on Capitol Hill who meet once a month to dialog about faith in the workplace. Our good friend Susan leads the group and does an amazing job! Erica and I have become regular attenders and always enjoy the early morning coffee, bagels, and conversation. We’d definitely recommend it for anyone in the DC area looking for a good networking …
Last month I worked on a photography project for the fabulous Bittersweet Creative for a magazine they designed. The photos above and below are part of a collection that were taken for the project. The following two photos are of the finished magazine. They always do such great work and, of course, I always love seeing my photos come to life in print.
This summer I photographed the DC Youth Orchestra Program for Bittersweet Zine and was delighted when DCYOP hired me to take some additional portraits of their students for their brochures and marketing materials. I spent a few hours with them during their classes and rehearsals and so enjoyed getting to know their wonderful faculty and students. I was also impressed at how beautiful they sounded playing Christmas music – and at such young …
