Rule number 1: During fashion week always bring your flash.
Rule number 2: If you don’t have your flash, IMPROVISE.

last night I made the mistake of not bringing my flash, so I can get shots after the show. So I just decided to use the light from the runway and edit them the best I could and light room.

As long as you know how to shoot, you can get an amazing shot. Don’t make any excuses!

Shoutout to because he came to STEP last night.

Honestly, the hardest thing about this post was choosing the cover photo lol. Fun fact & I bonded over the fact we’re both from Maryland, yet somehow both ended up at NYFW.

I love how the world is so big, yet so small at the same time 🩷✨

had so many amazing looks. However, I had to give her own post for this pose.

She took my breath away on this runway 🤍

It’s been over a week, but here comes the flood.

Thank you to for having me !

Designer: 🧛🏽‍♀️❤️

In the middle of sorting & editing, when I came across this AMAZING photo I took during the show.

I would love to say that this one is my favorite, but I haven’t gotten through everything yet 😂

Thank you to for having me!

You can have the simplest equipment & still take amazing photos.

Expensive gear gear doesn’t make or break the photographer.

Baby, I got a full clip of DC Fashion Week Content still loading. I could literally post a photo every day for the next 3-4 months 😂

Anyway, check out the face behind your FAVORITE blazer brand .

They always have the most unique designs, I may need custom one come next season. I gotta look fly in the photo pit 😂
