Spring Is Here! Tuesday New York City Adventures

Spring is finally here, and I realize now, it probably wont last so long as we head into a probable hot hot Summer. The weather is perfect, and so yesterday, Ben and I took a walk in the city (starting in the West Village), before dinner in the Lower East Side.  We accidentally overshot the LES, and ended up in Chinatown. There's always lots happening in the city. I may not be the best street photographer, but there are still endless activity...

Last week was Valentine's Day. I love that date because it reminds people to dedicate a day to celebrating love.  Something sweet about seeing guys roam the streets carrying flowers could be a single rose or a multiple bouquets of flowers. I am so fortunate to capture couples in love for work, but in reality I find love everyday and everywhere.  I see it in the leaves of plants, I see it in knitted hearts people place on fences. ...
