Con Dai Salaberry | @dai.salaberry | April 20, 2023
A Miami Beach afternoon with Dai.
Dai is a force of nature. They say good things come in small packages, and that couldn't be more true for her. I first met Dai during Miami Music Week at The Sagamore, and I was immediately drawn to her vibrant energy. Fast forward a couple of weeks, and we found ourselves on Miami Beach for an afternoon shoot. Dai's presence was captivating, and her eyes were truly mesmerizing. Her infectious enthusiasm made every shot a delight to capture. Shooting with Dai was an absolute pleasure, and I can confidently say that she brings a unique and powerful energy to every moment. I hope we can work together again someday.
Dai es una fuerza de la naturaleza. Dicen que las cosas buenas vienen en paquetes pequeños y eso no podría ser más cierto para ella. Conocí a Dai por primera vez durante la Semana de la Música de Miami en The Sagamore e inmediatamente me atrajo su energía vibrante. Un par de semanas después, nos encontramos en Miami Beach para una sesión fotográfica por la tarde. La presencia de Dai era cautivadora y sus ojos realmente fascinantes. Su contagioso entusiasmo hizo que capturar cada toma fuera un placer. Filmar con Dai fue un placer absoluto y puedo decir con confianza que ella aporta una energía única y poderosa a cada momento. Espero que algún día podamos volver a trabajar juntos.

7 Looks With Katie Cook | February 25, 2023
Almost a year in the making, here’s what a day with Katie Cook, her suitcase, and a gorgeous South Beach home looks like.
I met Katie at Miami Music Week 2022, and it took almost a year to finlly get the chance to create with her. She brought everything I’d imagined; beauty, experience, style, confidence, and generosity of spirit. We had a gorgeous home to use as our backdrop, and here are the fruits of our labor.
Sometimes, when you’re being spontaneous & testing, you create something amazing. Sometimes you find things you didnt expect. Sometimes, you miss the mark, and what was in your head just doesn’t materialize. This shoot was all of those things. I don’t know if it was what either of us expected, but I am grateful for the experience, and home for the pleasure of creating with Katie again someday.

Testing with @bbytwee | Theresa Grant | 1 of 2 | February 17, 2017
Once upon a time, I had the opportunity to photograph @bbytwee
Theresa was incredible, as you can clearly see below. This was shot as part of a test for Ford. The incredibly talented and severely underutilized Michell Lelia did the makeup/hair. You’ve gotta check out Theresa’s stuff. She’s out there kicking ass, it seems. There are so many dope shots here that I had to split this session in to two posts. Stay tuned for part II.
