Look Up
I visited NYC in February 2020. I didn't know it then, but that weekend would mark my last trip, last restaurant meal, last live show, and last museum visit for almost two full years.

Cross Over
In December of 2017, my brother planned to propose to his girlfriend by the Brooklyn Bridge. He wanted the proposal to be documented, but he didn't want to tip off his future wife. His solution was to invite me and my husband to NYC for the weekend. I always have my camera on me and heavily document my day. My sister-in-law was not at all suspicious when I backed away and started firing away on my DSLR.

Begin Again
Begin Again was taken inside the new One World Trade Center a few weeks after it first opened in 2016.
As an American, who experienced 9/11 as a child, it was a powerful feeling to see this symbol of resilience opened to the public 15 years after that day that changed the world for the worse.

The View from the Otherside
On a chilly Saturday in December, my husband and I walked across the Brooklyn Bridge from Manhattan to Brooklyn with my brother and his girlfriend. Once on the other side, my brother surprised his girlfriend with a marriage proposal. She said yes.
