Nothing beats Easter in Bequia. This trip with Ella meant so much to me. It is her first international trip and our first extended daddy daughter trip with no agenda other than connecting our roots.

My parents made a point to keep us connect with relatives in the islands and I wholeheartedly appreciate that more and more as an adult. To see Ella’s face light up with amazement and appreciation for the calm beauty of Bequia it moved me.

UTAH! I took a detour after a recent work trip to Salt Lake City and ended up in Moab, which was a beautiful escape. Moab has been on my bucket list for quite some time and it was nice to explore the valleys and beautiful landscapes of this area. I saw gorgeous landscapes, amazing nature and some of the most beautiful sunsets. Definitely worth a look if you ever end up in the area.

Curious about the fit? Well, even if you aren’t, I’m wearing denim, boots, and my gigantic hat is from . Shearling Coat thrifted via

Portraits of , an actor hailing from the DMV area. We captured these photos on a cold November morning with the Washington monuments as our studio. The crisp morning light highlights this stoic energy with piercing rates into the lens. Looking forward to seeing this rising star on a stage and a screen near you. Happy Birthday , keep going! 💪🏾💪🏾
