No.10 Adore Home Book
This was huge for me, my very first in-book feature: my daughter’s room (and daughter) in the Adore Home Magazine book! Thank you to editor Loni Parker, and to Irene Lovett & Sabra Lattos who both helped me make this happen. All three very talented ladies!

No.6 Summer in Miami
I had the desire to live/work in Miami for six weeks, and I went for it! It was a summer my daughter and I will treasure forever. And I got to take part in Miami Swim Week and work on a few shoots on top of it all. What an experience! (swimwear c/o Triangl)
