The Gift | Austin Photographer

A couple of years ago I was contacted by a woman in Ann Arbor, Michigan about designing some promotional pieces for a company called Doghouse. I ended up doing the job and Rasheena and I became fast friends. When I went to Ann Arbor to photograph the facility, Rasheena and I had one of the most lovely meals I have ever had. We have so much to say when we are together that we talk over each other. It is rare in life, but sometimes you meet someone that you feel like you have known all your life. And it is a gift. Rasheena came to town recently for a workshop so we spent a lovely day going to Torchy's and then having cocktails outside at the Four Seasons. It was one of the most beautiful Austin days. Her friend Krista joined us later in the afternoon and for dinner. It was a great girl's day.

And stay tuned for Rasheena's newest venture, which is a company called Kickstand Collections. They will be offering curated children's book collections that can be personalized with bookplates. It is going to launch this Spring and should be fabulous.
