There’s nobody like Daddy

If you think I’m handsome, you should meet my Daddy

I don’t mean to be the bragging Mom, but I just loved my last two subjects. I was visiting my friend and fellow photographer Nadine Van Der Wielen to help her set up her new home studio, and my darling sleepy head son and partner volunteered for a few studio shots.


I just love his little sleepy look. Imperfection is wonderful!


There’s no body like Daddy!

I CRAVE some girl time!

I just wanted to take a moment and thank all the CRAVE ladies that attended the NY borrel this last weekend. There’s nothing like networking and swapping a few stories with both new and old gal pals. Drinks and snacks were held at the lovely Shinkel Haven near Vondel Park. I had the great opportunity to photograph this Cafe and it’s owner for this year’s CRAVE Amsterdam edition, but it was nice to see it in it’s evening setting.



It’s so hard to believe that it’s been one year that I’ve worked with CRAVE. I feel like I’ve done a full round trip but have had so many special things happen over the course of that time. Many of those things including my entire pregnancy (from start to finish), parties, photoshoots and meeting so many amazing and inspiring business women which all came about thanks to my connection to CRAVE. So here is a virtual blog toast to one year of learning new things, meeting new people, and finding myself. I can only hope and wish that 2011 will outshine last year even more!
