For Bare Magazine, I wrote a blog post about Dunlin, a leather purse designer and manufacturer based in NYC. I'm really proud of this post because of how amazingly the photos came out! I was worried about the low light environment inside the store and not capturing the ambiance correctly because I would need to use flash. However, I was able to photograph the products while using flash without lighting up the shot too much! I was honestly surprised at how I really was able to get the dark, mysterious, late 1800s in London during the crime reign of Jack the Ripper feel! (I know, that sounds absolutely terrible, but it really does describe the way that store felt! Almost as if it's a store where Sweeney Todd characters would shop for purses and handbags.)
Anyway, here is the link:

I am just so happy at how much I've been improving and growing as a photographer of various styles! I can't wait to see where I am next year, five years from now, and even ten years down the line! Actually SEEING my improvement really encourages me to keep practicing and experimenting! I'm so excited for what the future has in store!
