This is Na'ama~ /
Fierce and courageous in life. I have the privilege to learn and grow with Na'ama in my studio and in beautiful settings around these sacred lands. She reminds me of an ancient queen in her youth. She is full of fire and the sun covers its eyes to gaze apon her. I can sense all the strong women and courageous warriors that have come before her when theragraphy* is happening.
She radiates love and passion. When we first started hanging out it was because our energy knew each other before we said a word. I am so thankful for her and I look forward to seeing where she will go. Na'ama is off to NY soon to do what I have already seen she will do~She will travel the world many times over.
She was born in Goa, India. Her father, Alon, is Moroccan Israeli and her mother's name is Pamela, she is American.
Na'ama is a citizenship of Israel and the US.
I'm thankful she trusts me and we can create anything we set out to create.

A classic accessory for a woman is nothing~
I love transformations in a session! It’s such an integral part of what I do.
Simple = simply gorgeous.
The lines on her feet. Some of my favorite lines on a woman.
I’ve been loving this lighting set-up lately! It’s gorgeous and super easy to do.
I wanted to create moody, flattering, dramatic and I think we accomplished that.
Lucca has the most infectious enthusiasm. About whatever she happens to be doing at the moment. She’s good energy all the time.
Thank You Lucca for allowing me to take your portrait. Many Blessings to you!
A Story must be told... /
It was a cold, crisp February morning. The wind blew threw me and chilled my core. I wish the sun would come closer, I needed to be warmed up a bit. A good washing would do me good. I feel dirty from all that surrounds me.
It won't be long til I'm gone...
It's always so still. The quiet, deafening. I could go for some beautiful banjo twang right about now. That would encourage my soul a bit. Life has been pure and wholesome...to say the least. It won't be long till I'm gone.
Bare naked I am, to the windows of my soul. I stand here alone, wide open for all to see, letting all the bugs in to my soul. It won't be long till I'm gone. Peace will fall on me as I fall to pieces. Oh how time has past here, near me.
It's nice to have people over, making oneself feel useful again. It's been some time on this prolonging pursuit of the inevitable.
I remember Ms. Abrams pressing Mr. Abrams shirt before he headed out to the market. She would stand there all day singing to any bird that caught her fetching eye. The freshest lavender trail would follow her everywhere.
My visitors were kind and reminded me of some of the best years of my life. Many holidays and shared precious moments that no others have seen the likes of. Even if it were only for a moment, it was nice to be useful and wanted again.
Was it all a dream? I shall rest now...again...and forever. Thank You.
Special Thank You to

Møniça-Theragraphy Session /
This is Monica. I met her around 6 years ago working downtown. First impression Intelligent, lovely, feisty, strong, talented and funny. Working in the restaurant industry I rarely think on someone's life. You know, How they are doing. This lady was a sister from another Mr for sure! Time passed and I wondered how my sister was doing. Since I last saw Monica she has had two beautiful children and is a loving and caring mother. It was nice to help pull my friend up with the help of many others in her life recently in a session.You are respected my dear! Keep your faith and your light~ Stay beautiful inside and out.
We all will know of strengths when we are at our weakest. I know the test is coming and in my life I look forward to the weakness. It comes less and less the more you realize the life you want to live. The eternal struggle of good and evil in all of us. We all know the faux faces. I choose to roam with beings looking to see themselves in a more fitting situation with everything around them. I personally have been 'destroyed and rebuilt' many times. All the while learning what to do and not to do. It is that simple. We forget as well daily. So how do you stay happy in a Mad World?
Look for your higher power! Whatever that means to you. I live in a world that I choose. I have no time for negativity in ALL it's forms. I see it and I make a new path.
