It was hot. It was humid. And it was just plain wet. But, we had a blast. The lighting was perfect. Attitudes were high. At times I was down on all fours for this engagement photo shoot for my dear friend, Renee, and her Snape. Here are a few of my favorites from our session in Yangon, Myanmar.

Loved getting the chance to go behind the scenes of a lifestyle photo shoot with this beautiful human and dear friend. Follow Ariel Thuta for inspiration on all things fashion, life, and happenings in Myanmar. Thank you for this opportunity, Ariel! Looking forward to many more good times and photos ahead.

"It’s as if I’m an outsider within, as if I’m still living in a different culture even though I came “home” just in time for this election five months ago."

Everything I want the world to know about returning to the United States post Trump election after spending the majority of my 20s abroad.

A favorite sight, sound, taste, and smell of Myanmar all in one... A man makes fresh sugar cane juice using this vintage piece of machinery. As he spins the wheel to squeeze out every last swig of sugar from the cane, bells jingle and jangle – attracting people from near and far for a glass of this sweet, earthy goodness. The flowers are a common, fragrant part of Yangon. They dangle just about everywhere you look, and serve as a form of offering/blessing for the day.

Some shots from a night of live bluegrass music by the Ayeyerwaddy Delta Daredevils at Zeal in Yangon, Myanmar, several weeks ago. What a fantastic band! If you haven't had the chance to hear them, do follow their page for updates on when and where they'll next perform.

Some of my fave snaps from the "Purple Stardust" dance party put on by A KHU KA Events at J-one Music Bar. The night featured classics from Prince, David Bowie, and other fallen stars. Go to A KHU KA's page for many more fun photos from the night!

I had the privilege of photographing a very special birthday party and donation ceremony recently. Such a lovely family and a cute little boy! Happy 2nd Birthday, Hein!

Thingyan (Myanmar's Water Festival) is just around the corner which means I have some time to finally catch up on a few photo essays... Coming soon is a post on hopping about old trains left near the Insein stop along Yangon's circular railway...

Fahrenheit in Yangon, Myanmar, last Thursday evening as seen through a bus window. I love this place! If you haven't been, please go. Great drinks. Greater food. Greatest people!
