It was awesome working with Ella last week on some new headshots for her upcoming summer theater auditions. thank you to who did a fantastic job with the makeup and hair styling!

Here’s a personal branding session where I had the opportunity to photograph Musician, Ethan Yeshaya . Check out the links in his profile to see his impressive work.

I’m excited to announce I’ve started a new blog on my website called the Aurore blog! (link in my profile.) I’m beginning a portrait series showcasing the incredible creative talent in Minnesota. The blog name ‘Aurore’ comes from French and symbolizes ‘illumination’ or ‘light,’ often associated with beauty and inspiration.

First up, we have a photo series, and a story about the talented actress, and model, Chika Chan. You can find her on Instagram at .kochy.

We collaborated with Makeup and hair artist, Kristin Schmid () who brought these images to the next level.

Writer Jennifer Young () wrote a fantastic profile about Chika’s career, titled ‘The Arc of Her Story.’ Head over to Chika’s story on the blog.

I’ve been very fortunate to have many personal musical influences in my life, and both my brothers, very accomplished musicians, have played a huge part in the shaping the musician I am today.

Through my other passion, photography, I’ve assisted Mike with his personal branding over the years, starting with photos I shot for his first CD in 2000. Recently I had the opportunity to update Mike’s headshots, and frankly, these shots are some of the best we’ve captured.
