Monkey Grind Espresso Bar

I currently have my Summer Sun series of photos on view at the Monkey Grind Espresso Bar in the Greenwood neighborhood of Seattle.  http://www.monkeygrind.com/  It's a very cute coffee bar, and I'm happy to be showing there until the end of June!

Village Theater Gala

I photographed the 2012 Village Theater Gala at the Fairmont Olympic for Team Photogenic on May 19th.  A really elegant night for a great cause!

Damn Yankees!

I had lots of fun being a personal photographer for a donor to the 5th Avenue Theater who purchased the opportunity to be in a walk on role for a performance of Damn Yankees at the 5th Avenue in Seattle.  All photos copyright Team Photogenic.
