Image for About the Author

This is the picture I took of Mimi and her grandchildren, that is in the back of the book Midnight with Mimi for the about the author. It is also on the books website. Marrissa Jonas and Demetrius Freeman were my assistants and we had a lot of fun! It's a little crazy trying to get 11 people to all look at you and pose, but the family was great, I got a lot of really fun shots also and it was a fun learning experience!

Sharing the love of photography

Yesterday I visited our exibit at Art Station with my grandparents. I was really excited to begin with because my granddad and I have shared the love of photography for years, and he hadn't seen any of the work in my current portfolio. He was very impressed by all my work and of course had a favorite. It was my little girl on the fence, he told me he loved my composure and how thought provoking it was. He then look at me handed me a check and told me he wanted that picture in his home! It means so much to be because I respect him so much as another genuine lover of photography and of course as my granddad!
