IT'S ALMOST HERE... Yes, Valentine's Day is Monday (Psst, don't forget about your significant other!) and it is often a time when many couples get .

Back in August, I was fortunate to photograph a California couple, who were visiting NYC, for an engagement photo session. Subsequently, I shared some the photos of Emma & Ritchie, here on social media and my blog. So delighted with how everything evolved, I've since translated a few of these photos into video form: “Longboard Love” is what I share with you here. I hope you enjoy!
