Sara

I was buying candy for trick or treaters on Halloween and ended up going through Sara's check out lane.  I loved how she did her eyes and her outfit was awesome!  So I asked if I could make a portrait of her!  :) 

Cashmira

Cashmira was shopping with her mom at The Fresh Market when my wife and I saw her.  We were immediately drawn to her amazing style!  It was crystal clear that she was an artist with a very fun spirit.  Through meeting her I learned that she is a home school student.  That was really fun to discover as I homeschooled from 6th grade through high school.  Keep being you, Cashmira!  You have a bright future ahead of you!  :)

Kerri

I met Kerri at a book sale the CR Public Library was having at The Cherry Building this past October.  It was so much fun seeing all the fellow book lovers who were out enjoying the sale.  Not only does Kerri have great taste in books but she does in fashion as well!  It was great to meet you, Kerri!  :) 

Meara

Meara is such a delight!  She is a good friend, and a barista at my favorite coffeehouse, Brewed Awakenings.  I absolutely love Meara's personality and sense of style.  She has a lovely, unique  & genuine heart and it shows in everything she does!  

Melissa

I always love being able to feature my beautiful wife, Melissa.  She has brought so much art and creativity to my life.  And continues to do so! She is a bright light and a joy!  I like how this outfit highlights the inner brightness she loves to bring to the world.  I love you, Melissa!  Keep shining!  

Staci

There are some people who simply have the natural ability to infuse joy and light into wherever they happen to be.  Staci is most definitely one of them!  Along with having an incredible sense of style she has a beautiful heart full of vision and wisdom and she is an artist overflowing with talent! 

Morgan

I met this cool and beautiful young lady named Morgan at The Blue Strawberry café in downtown Cedar Rapids today. She was meeting with a group of people and behind me in line to order a hot chocolate.  I loved everything about Morgan's style, from her awesome haircut down to her amazing boots, she simply exuded authenticity.   She was really fun to meet!
