This week I will shoot in Chicago, Illinois. In February I will shoot in Fort Worth, Texas. It is a moment in time to get individual or family portraits. Send me an email if you would like to book a session at uppcreative@yahoo.com


This July my photography will focus on some of my favorite roses. These are from my mom’s home. But these flowers remind me of summer. Big. Bright. Beautiful.
In June we will do things that make us better. This month pray for the Supreme Court of the United States. Pray that they will do what is right and just and fair. Pray that everyone in the United States will also do the same.
In June, I will celebrate with photos of art that allow us to reflect on our history.
This is a Boli Fetish Figure from the Bamana people of Mali in West Africa. It is referred to as a fetish because it possessed a magical power representing a spirit that controlled some aspect of their life. It would get rid of disease or punish someone doing wrong in the community.
It was created of animal bones, feathers, vegetable matter, metal, mirror, and other organic matter.
